Yamaha Other description

Up for bid is my 1982 Yamaha IT 465.  This bike has had an every nut and bolt restoration done by a very meticulous machinist.  I used NOS parts where possible. The only parts that were not replaced were side covers (blue plastics, each has small crack, see photos), fuel tank (desert tank for extra long trails), front headlight shroud, and air box.  Engine is fresh with 11 miles on it, rebuilt with all Yamaha parts.   NOS DG expansion pipe with hard-to-find stock muffler / silencer.  I installed a YZ 465 intake boot to eliminate the boost bottle induction.  I always worry those plastic tanks could leak. I do have everything to reinstall if you like.  Head light and tail light function as should.  This bike needs nothing.  Bike was done with every intention of staying in my collection.   I have title in hand,  but is in previous owner's name.  I will provide bill of sale also.  Please remember $500.00 down at end of auction.  Remainder of payment by certified funds or cash due within 7 days.  I have used Wolverine Transport to ship and pick up a lot of bikes for me. They are fair priced and trustworthy.  I can assist with loading bike.  I can store bike for up to 60 days as long as it is paid in full.

Rumor: Yamaha Developing Inline Three Roadster

Wed, 25 Jan 2012

French 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.

Jefferies' TT V&M R1 for sale

Tue, 26 Apr 2011

We got a tip-off about a former David Jefferies TT R1 for sale on eBay. The owner says it's from the 1998 TT but I'm pretty sure it was the one he raced in 1999. Here's a little bit more background about the V&M TT effort in 1999: In 1990 Jack Valentine gave up racing to concentrate on running V&M Racing, and after being sacked by Honda at the end of the 1998 season, the team set about to do some giant killing.
