Yamaha XS description
Vintage 1975 yamaha xs500 w/37561 miles. Kickstart!
The condition is about what you would expect from a 38 year old motorcycle that has been driven regularly. It has some minor scratches and dings. The front left turn signal lens has a hole in it. Overall it is in good cosmetic condition, I would give it an 8 out of 10. Mechanically i would give it a 9 out of 10. The engine top end was rebuilt about 3k miles ago with new gaskets, seals, timing chain and piston rings. The oil filter flange was threaded to accept a 20mm oil filter because the original filters are out of production and replacements don't fit under the side cover. I was using a k&n filter for a nissan sentra.
Has a clear acrylic windscreen/fairing. The original
seat was replaced with a cafe style solo seat. I still have the original 2 person seat pad. I also have a second transmission that
will go with this bike.
This would make a nice starter bike. It's been well
maintained, starts easy and runs great.

Tue, 11 Mar 2014The Beatles invaded America 50 years ago and took this country by storm. Now, Yamaha is channeling the Fab Four of John, Paul, George, and Ringo with this teaser video of their own “Fast Four” ahead of this weekend’s AMA racing festivities at Daytona International Raceway. With J.D.
Rumor: Yamaha Developing Inline Three Roadster
Wed, 25 Jan 2012French motorcycle outlet Moto Revue reports Yamaha is developing a new three-cylinder middleweight. Citing an internal Yamaha document, Moto Revue reports the new naked model will feature an inline Triple engine, aluminum perimeter frame, upside-down fork and a triple-pipe exhaust like the MV Agusta F3 and Brutale 675. Yamaha has produced a Triple before, offering the XS750 from 1976-1979 before replacing it with the XS850 in 1980 and 1981 (pictured above is the 1981 Yamaha XS850.) The potential new model is still likely to be years away, so its look is yet to be determined, though Moto Revue does have a rendering that borrows some of the design elements from the FZ8.
Yamaha Sketches out the Features on the New 2010 YZ450F [Video]
Thu, 10 Sep 2009You’ll realize how cheesy that headline is after watching the pretty rad video that Yamaha has released. Yamaha’s new motocross bike has taken a radical new approach. The engine is backwards. Yamaha’s reason for doing this is to shift the heavy end of the motor more to the center of the motorcycle to make it more agile and responsive. Slanting the cylinder also made for a straighter pathway for the air intake at the front of the bike.
