Yamaha Other description

I have had a lot of spam emails from Craig's List. I have tightened our spam filter to the point where it is easy to catch emails that are not spam. Please include your name and phone number in the email. This way it will not get spammed. If you do not include your name and phone number, odds are it will be spammed and I will never see your email. If you prefer not to call, please try to make your email a little more detailed so it will not get spammed. If you do not hear from me within a couple days you may want to call me and make sure that I received your email. This bike is a Yamaha Venture XVZ1300. This bike looks to be a good project bike (see picture 1). The gas tank cover and cap are missing. The seat is also missing. The bike does have saddlebags but they are missing the tops to them (see picture3). Under the left side saddlebag the crash bar is bent in some. On the front end of the bike, the headlamp is gone (see picture 4) and on the left side of the fairing it looks to be a spot where the radio may have been that is now empty (see picture 2). On the rear of the bike the illuminated Yamaha is broken. Also the left turn signal is broken. Our parts guys hooked a jump box up to it to see if they could get the engine to turn over. The engine turned over freely. The bike currently has a Delaware Reconstructed title. The gauges are saying that this bike has 37510 mis on it. I cannot say that this is correct. This bike is being sold as is without warranty. If you are interested in this item please email, or call Sue at and use reference number 0034.

Recall for 2009-2011 Yamaha V-Max

Yamaha is issuing a recall campaign on certain 2009-2011 V-Max power cruisers due to a potential risk of oil pump malfunction. According to documents released by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, abnormally high oil pressure can build up within the oil pump of certain Yamaha V-Max models. The high pressure may force the washer on the oil pump shaft against the oil pump housing, causing oil to stop pumping through the engine.

A breath of fresh air

Dean Benstead's air-powered bike project, O2 Pursuit, which we spoke about a year ago, seems to have come along nicely since. Here's a video of the Australian's rotary air compression-engined Yamaha WR250R being taken out for a spin. Apparently it can hit 87 mph and cover more than 60 miles on a scuba-tankful's worth.

Ask MO Anything: Should I Buy a New 2022 Yamaha MT-10?

Thu, 06 Oct 2022

Is this a trick question? Dear MOby, Thank God I’m in the enviable position of having a wife that gave me the OK to get whatever bike I want, after selling off all my old ones about seven years ago. So, here’s my parameters: After test riding a ton of stuff, I’ve decided I want a (bigger) naked bike, and in first place is the 2022 Yamaha MT-10.
