Yamaha XS description
|
Up for sale is a 79 XS1100. The bike starts, runs, rides, stops, and shifts. It has a nice MAC 4-1 header. Overall, the bike is in good shape for the year, it just needs a little attention. It has a new stator (charges at 14.5-15v), new petcocks, and the carbs have been gone through.
The float valves stick a little and it will leak gas if the petcocks are left on. That is an issue that will definitely need addressed. The carbs will probably need synched also. The tank is clean inside but has a few dings and scratches, not too bad though. One side cover is broken as shown in the pics. The seat is in good shape. The kick starter works but won't return on its own, probably a bad spring I would guess, but the electric start works fine. Rear tire is good, front tire has some cracking. The battery will need replaced, I have just started it off a jump box. This is a chance to get a good deal on a large cc shaft drive Yamaha, and would be an easy winter project. Thank you for looking! |

Another Day at the Office for Yamaha MotoGP Stars – Video
Fri, 27 Jul 2012Back in 2009, Yamaha released an entertaining video featuring MotoGP racers Valentino Rossi, Jorge Lorenzo, Colin Edwards and James Toseland working on various mundane jobs at Yamaha Motor USA headquarters. Three years later, Yamaha has released a follow-up featuring its current MotoGP lineup of Lorenzo, Ben Spies, Cal Crutchlow and Andrea Dovizioso (with King Kenny Roberts lunchbox in tow). Tech3 Yamaha racer Crutchlow takes over his predecessor Edwards’ spot as a Yamaha security guard, but throws his own British spin on the job.
Yamaha R1 rider lowsides on left-hander
Tue, 23 Mar 2010THIS GUY'S lucky he doesn't get flicked over the top, after losing the back end of his Yamaha YZF-R1 on a twisty section of mountain road. He looks pretty miffed at the result; we think he got away lightly. It could have been soooo much worse if the rear tyre had gripped and lobbed the rider over the top.
Happy 50th Hizzy
