Well mine is 11J000650.  Quite near the low end.  I think in the above posted link the lowest number sofar is 510.

Oh, I wonder who or where #550 is.  Wouldn't that be a hoot.  Owning a XZ550/Vision with the #550.  Would definately make it a collector item I think.

What I would find interesting is how many Visions did Yamaha sale in the US? I have no idea if the vin number really tells us this, I know we've posted vin numbers before but I don't think we ever were able to conclude how many potential bikes are out there.

Hey my V's only 30 feet away from me in the office parking lot, number 008237!

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA lets go again baby !!!!!!

'82 Vision, Pearl Orange finish, lots of up-grades!!!

I am curious how many were actually built.It would be neat to have either the first or last one.Or all of them for that matter.

As Ii understand it Yamaha won't say , what total production was.

1000 Visions were lost at sea?  Oh my "V", with drowned and sacrificed brothers.

So, if some 20k V's were produced, are 10% still running?  That's 2000 and 50% are reporting in?  Just a guess!
