Who would have thought that Batgirl's motorcycle from the 1966 Batman series was a YAMAHA.

That's pretty neat!

That appears to be the inspiration for the Victory Vision.

Victory must have forgotten the white frilly lace though.

Interesting! My first bike was a '67 Yamaha 180 that I bought new while stationed in the Navy in Hawaii.

Here's a representative photo:

This brings back my childhood fantasies of doing bad things with Batgirl. In the interest of keeping this PG I will shut up now, lol.

Ahhh, yes! The "motorcycles" of the sixties! I had a cousin that had a Yamaha Riverside 60 and another cousin that rode a Honda 90. Come to think of it, my barber back then had a Bridgestone. I had my heart set on a Honda 65, but I would have readily accepted a Honda 50. But alas, my parents were protective and wouldn't let my brother or I have one much less ride with with our cousins. We did, however, sneak in a ride or two here and there.
