Yamaha Other description

I have this ORIGINAL 1982 Yamaha IT175 for sale. It has not been molested and even has the original tool kit with it. It has been from California to Tennessee that I know of.  It was sold at an auction in TN then sold to a family member. I purchased it from him nearly three years ago. Since I have owned it I have raced it in a couple of Cross Country Vintage Class races. It runs great but it can be a typical 2-stroke at times and will need to be kicked more than once. This bike mostly sits in my garage where I can admire it. I have since purchased a couple of other vintage bikes that need my attention more so this one has to go. The bike is a good 6-8 out of 10 for it's age.
List of things the old bike needs or is not original:
1. Fork seals-  I do have seal savers on it but the seals need replaced
2. Dent in the pipe-  Did that myself when I fell against a tree on a trail
3. One of the decals on the tank is not original
4. Has Renthal bars
5. I did cut the dog bone down a little on the rear suspension linkage to lower it a bit for a shorter rider...done well and professionally
6. Tires are old

I will not ship this bike so it is available for local pick-up only.  PayPal only for deposit.  Please see pics and ask any questions that you might have. Otherwise, see my feedback and bid with confidence. This bike does not have a title however, that wasn't an option for the drop box above.  It is OFF-ROAD only.

Charges Laid Against Suspect for 185 mph Yamaha R1 YouTube Video

Fri, 13 Jul 2012

Remember that video on YouTube about the rider going 185 mph on a highway in Canada? The video went viral and eventually led to the seizure of a Yamaha R1 and $1,449 (Canadian) in traffic tickets issued to its owner. In April, police in Saanich, British Columbia believed they had enough evidence to seize the R1 and issued tickets to the registered owner for speeding, operating without due care and attention, and operating without insurance.

Anti clockwise Knockhill and riding in the North East with GP winners.

Wed, 06 Jun 2012

I was both nervous and excited for my first ever reverse direction track day last week at Knockhill. From rushing downhill into the left hand off camber hairpin to sweeping up onto the start/finish, nothing bears any resemblance to riding round clockwise. I actually raced my 350LC in the opposite direction in 1982 but it still took a few laps to get my head round what essentially is a brand new track for Scotland.

Results From Day 2 Of World Supersport Testing At Phillip Island

Tue, 18 Feb 2014

If there’s one constant when it comes to World Supersport racing, it’s that Kenan Sofuoglu will be at or near the front at all times. The former champ has a special ability when it comes to lapping middleweight sportbikes as quickly as possible, and it showed again at the conclusion of World Supersport testing at Phillip Island. Sofuoglu’s best time of 1:33.506 was set during the first day of testing, but still nobody was able to beat it.
