Yamaha SR500 description

I purchased three motorcycles from an elderly friend recently. This 1979 Yamaha SR500, a 1955 pre-unit Triumph T110 and a 1971 Norton Commando. The Norton and Triumph will be listed on separate auctions. This SR500 is a numbers matching bike that starts easily, and runs, rides, shifts and stops great! All lights and blinkers work! The amateur paint isn't great, but the tank is straight except for one very small ding, and it is clean inside. This bike also has a clear title ready for transfer. This would be an easy bike to restore to stock or it would be a great foundation for a mild custom bobber or chopper. It is a great little bike that would be easy to finish and is quite collectible. It is being sold with no reserve! I can help load on to your shipper. Buyer is responsible for arranging and paying for shipping. Bike must be paid for in full within 7 days. PayPal is fine. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding!

Hey guys, I listed this bike incorrectly as a 1979, it is indeed a 1978 and the frame I.D. tag says 10/77. Title also says 1978. If that messes anybody up, feel free to retract your bid. Sorry for the mistake!

GSX-R600 and CBR250R the glass is half full

Wed, 13 Oct 2010

Suzuki’s GSX-R600 might not look that much different to the outgoing model but I suspect this bike could be very much a dark horse in 2011. I say this because two years ago I was definitely not building my hopes up en route to the K9 GSXR 1000 launch. The leaked pictures suggested the biggest change from the 2007 version would be some fresh graphics but I was so wrong. As it turned out, I was greeted in Almeria with a brand new bike, built from the tarmac up and it proved to be more than a match in every department for the much hyped 2009 Yamaha R1.

Best Helmet Designs from the 2009 MotoGP Season

Thu, 22 Oct 2009

Unlike with most athletes, motorcycle racers’ faces remain hidden during competition. Except for promotional events or pre- and post-race interviews, the faces of our racing heroes are shielded under protective helmets with tinted visors. You don’t see the same human emotion in their faces like you can when soccer players score a goal or baseball players hit a home run.

Official: Rossi Leaving Ducati for Yamaha Return

Fri, 10 Aug 2012

In a pair of carefully-timed press releases, Ducati announced it will part ways with MotoGP star Valentino Rossi at the end of the season and Yamaha announced it has signed Rossi to a two-year contract. The arrangement had been in the works for some time now and the two manufacturers had reportedly wanted to wait until Aug. 15 to make their announcements.
