Yamaha V Star description

The bike started life as a 1999 Yamaha V-Star 650 Classic. It has now been transformed into the ultimate bobber motorcycle. It has just a hair over 11k miles and has been well maintained. The best thing about a metric bike is that it's super reliable and this thing still rides like the Cruiser it was originally born to be! Where to start... I didn't like the look of the original 16" front wheel so I had a few things changed on the front end to accommodate a 21" Harley Davidson Narrowglide front wheel, tire, and rotor. I had the handlebars, switches, and cables all changed up and/or hidden as well. The bars were changed to WoodCraft brand clip-ons with a Biltwell Whiskey Single Throttle Cable Assembly. The switches were custom relocated to the existing holes on the upper triple tree. I had a custom Biltwell Slimline seat installed. It's got a custom rear fender which started life as a full fender from Blue Collar Bobber. It's also got a side mounted rear light and plate kit by Blue Collar Bobber. The exhaust started life as Cobra Slashcut pipes and were cut down and wrapped to compliment the Bobber look. The engine was completely and professionally overhauled and the cylinder jugs, tank, and rear fender were just freshly painted gloss black. The Carburetors have been gone through and thoroughly cleaned when I did the pipes. The stripes on the headlight in the pictures are only electrical tape and have since been removed. NOTE: Since I originally posted this ad I have purchased a Large Biltwell Bonanza Gang Green Helmet and their Biltwell Moto Black Gloves in Large as well so they are now included in this auction along with EKS Brand Moto Goggles in black. They are nearly new as I have worn them but they were purchased in the beginning of September 13'. I will also throw in the bike cover for this bike as well as a Big Red Motorcycle Jack that was used once to do the front wheel. This bike needs nothing and when you get on it, you feel like a bad ass! This bike is a real headturner as no one seems to know exactly what it is when you go scootin' by. Surprisingly comfortable to ride, even for long periods of time. Don't really need to sell this bike but wouldn't mind a larger down payment towards a home. NO RESERVE! Open to all offers, questions, comments. Let me know and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Thanks in advance.

2014 MotoGP Qatar in Pictures

Mon, 24 Mar 2014

The opening round of the 2014 MotoGP season is complete, and if the Grand Prix of Qatar is any indication, it looks like it’ll be an interesting season. If you haven’t yet, read up on the recap for the Qatar MotoGP race for the details on what transpired at Losail International Circuit in Doha. Here then are some of the (mostly spoiler-free) photographs from the Grand Prix of Qatar, including images from the MotoGP, Moto2 and Moto3 classes.

Ienatsch, Hill, Russell, Bestwick To Give Speech At Yale Today

Thu, 30 Jan 2014

In what might be considered the most shocking news of 2014 so far, Nick Ienatsch and Ken Hill are going to Yale. While some might think the Chief and Lead instructors at the newly revamped Yamaha Champions Riding School are getting in over their heads, the two are at Yale as lead presenters for “Excellence In Motion: What Motorcycle Racing Can Teach Us About Success,” which begins at 4pm (local time) today.  When put into context, their appearance at one of the nation’s top schools is understandable. Each has had their fair share of success aboard motorcycles, and they will be joined by two more champions on two-wheels, five-time Daytona 200 winner and 1993 World Superbike Champion Scott Russell, and Jamie Bestwick, an avid motorcyclist and winner of eight consecutive X-Games BMX Vert gold medals.

Behind the scenes in Qatar

Sat, 19 Mar 2011

Just because you have the name Jorge Lorenzo on your screen and you've won a world championship doesn't mean you'll get an easy time at scrutineering. In Qatar the technical inspection staff made the factory Yamaha mechanics remove bodywork and unbolt some electrical components in order to get a better look at the guts of the 2011 M1. Everything was in order of course but what a great opportunity for the scrutineers to exercise their power and have a poke around the most high tech Yamaha on the planet.
