'61,
In 1977 Yamaha made the XS750D and XS750 2D. The "D" had 35mm forks, the "2D" and all subsequent XS750's had 36mm forks.

Hey all,
I increased my horsepower to weight ratio by losing 35 pounds
since Jan. 6.
I still feel jipped. Men's Health said losing 30 pounds would make
John Thomas appear an inch longer.
