1981 Yamaha XS650 Street Tracker, Gene Romero tribute, no expense spared, AHRMA Listing for a senior friend of mine who is not an Ebayer. A dirt tracker that is fully street legal ! He built it over a number of years and it was a labor of love for a Gene Romero fan (see final pic for Gene's track bike). Clean IL title in hand. Many parts from Omar's Dirt Tracking. There is a little under $11,000 in this build. This bike always draws a crowd at bike rallies / shows and has been in several national magazines. ____________________________________________________

2013 Yamaha XT250 Receives Fuel Injection
Thu, 07 Jun 2012The Yamaha XT250 dual sport is getting a fuel injection system for the 2013 model year, replacing the previous model’s 33mm Teikei carburetor. Apart from fuel injection and new graphics, the only other changes are a new TCI ignition system in place of the 2012 model’s CDI ignition, and a slightly larger gas tank (2.6 gallons versus 2.4 gallons on last year’s model). The 249cc air-cooled SOHC engine and five-speed transmission remains unchanged.
The horrendous reality of restoring a 'classic'
Tue, 31 Aug 2010It was with much excitement – displaced or not – that my freshly rebuilt 1976 SR500 Yamaha fired into life at the second kick this weekend. I say second kick. It was actually the thirty second kick – thirty of those spent frothing up a heady sweat until I realised the main fuel pipe was kinked to buggery.
Yamaha Focusing on Developing Model Platforms
Mon, 22 Sep 2014Following the success of its MT platform, Yamaha says it will continue to develop new models based on shared platforms, allowing for a choice of multiple models while reducing overall costs. Speaking in a presentation on the company’s business operation, Yamaha Motor President Hiroyuki Yanagi reiterated the strategy of developing multiple models sharing the same engine and frame. Honda has followed a similar strategy with its NC models, seeing the platform evolve to include the CTX700 and NM4.
