Yamaha Other description

 The bad , and it ain't all that bad.  Paint on rear master cylinder is gone....brake fluid has a way of doing that.  No biggie to refinish.
Pipes are in very good condition , a couple little dings from being ridden. Re chrome for show or ride as it is.
Fenders are good to very good. the front could stand a re-plating to make it perfect , but it isn't pitted or dinged up.
The finish ?  It is what it is........I didn't do it.
The John Deere paint scheme was done by the previous owner and it is a better than fair job.
It would be no big deal to have the tank and side covers squirted and apply original decals if you covet the original look.
Top end was done by the previous owner and this little bugger goes like a two stroke twin should.
very quick for it's era and a pure joy to ride.
I will be happy to work with buyer on shipping.........I can crate the bike and deliver to a freight broker or trucking company of your choice for domestic or international sales.
I will have to charge actual material costs and mileage to crate and deliver , and that will run in the 125.00 neighborhood.
Pick up is cool , the bike is in St. Paul , Mn. , and I would drive a reasonable distance to deliver , again for mileage.

New: Venhill 888 fast-action twistgrips

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

CONTROL specialist Venhill has launched its new 888 range of bike-specific fast action twistgrips.  Supplied complete with the company's top of the range Featherlight cables, the kits are designed for a straightforward replacement of the factory-fitted equipment.  Bike-specific kits are now available for the Honda CBR600F, Kawasaki ZX-6R/ZX-10R, Suzuki GSX-R600/750, Triumph 675 Daytona and Yamaha R1/R6, among others, with prices from £105. Here's Venhill's description of the new product: "Manufactured with a robust CNC machined alloy body, the 888 fast action twistgrip provides a choice of two settings and is supplied with two rotors so that riders can select the throttle action that best suits the riding conditions.  Settings can be changed swiftly by undoing the two set screws securing the throttle body and changing the rotor. On the fastest setting there is 80° of rotation, (taking up 36mm of the cable), which is typically 45% faster than 'standard' throttles.
