Yuri is a native of Japan with a deep and abiding love for air-cooled American motorcycles, she’s never driven a car or ridden a scooter but she has ridden a hard-tail 1979 Shovelhead custom from one side of the USA to the other.

The Mazda RX-3 – An Introduction The Mazda RX-3 “Savanna” was a paradox of a car. Fledgling Japanese car maker Mazda built a pretty typical for the period small passenger car and dropped a twin rotor Wankel engine into it.
