Yamaha AT2 description

This posting is for my 1972 Yamaha AT2 motorcycle. I bought this bike a while ago and planned on getting her fit to ride on the roads and some small trails. I just don't have the time right now.

The motorcycle currently runs great... at idle. Any throttle given to it will kill it. So it will need some tuning. The carb on it is brand new, but it is fitted with an aftermarket pod filter setup. Also, a starter button will need to be wired up. Kick starting is the only way at the moment.

The wiring on this motorcycle is mostly complete, but the horn circuit needs some work, and the tail light needs to be connected. Also, the dash lights need to be hooked up correctly.

The front brake needs pads and possibly a new cable. The back brake works perfectly. Speaking of cables, a new Tachometer cable will be needed.

A previous owner had repainted the bike. It looks decent, but as you can see in the pictures, there are some chips and imperfections here and there.

These are sweet, rare little bikes. The two stroke engine automatically injects oil into the cylinder to mix with the gas. The oil pump is working, but needs to be bled.

The bike has trouble shifting. It seems to be the shift linkage. That will need to be inspected. New carb, new tail light, new fuel and oil lines, new plugs, new ignition coil, new battery, new throttle and cable.

This is a project bike, but it will take very little money and effort to get it going, especially if you just want it as a trail bike.

Do not be afraid to make me offers, the price is just a starting point.

If you have any questions at all, just ask. I want you to be happy with your purchase.

No title is available with the motorcycle. A bill of sale can be supplied if you desire.

Shipping or pickup is completely up to the buyer. I can help load the motorcycle. Please make arrangements to get the bike within a week, or I reserve the right to keep the deposit and relist the motorcycle.

Mon, 23 Dec 2013

In a recent group interview at Yamaha Motor Company headquarters in Japan, company president Hiroyuki Yanagi announced plans for the company to enter into the automotive market by as early as 2014 — six years ahead of schedule.

Kenny Roberts True American Heroes Benefit – Hang Out with World Champions and Bo Derek!

Fri, 03 May 2013

One of our favorite stories from 2012 was our coverage of the Kenny Roberts American Heroes Benefit Dinner. Hosted by King Kenny at his storied California ranch, it was an incredible opportunity to get close to the three-time world champ and other racing glitterati like Kenny Roberts Jr., Wayne Rainey, Eddie Lawson and renowned dirt-tracker Mert Lawwill. If those names resonate with you, it’s worth reading our story that includes a video and coverage of the Cpl.

NO IT'S NOT an illusion: you're looking at the 1981 Yamaha OW53, ridden by double World Champion Barry Sheene in the first three rounds of the '81 500GP championship. The bike's owner, aircraft engineering entrepreneur Chris Wilson, has lent the £100,000 GP machine to Visordown for our stand at this year's NEC Motorcycle Show - 27th November to 6th December 2009. Sheene raced the bike in the 1981 championship, where he finished fourth at Salzburgring, sixth at Hockenheim and third at Monza.
