Yamaha Other description
My workshop is too full of stuff and something has to go. This RZ500 has been here for over a year since I sold it to Mr. Procrastination, and I'm tired of pushing it around , cleaning the carbs and waxing it. It doesn't make a good work bench or parts shelf (it is a great dust collector!). it just takes up space I could use for something productive. It's too nice a bike to roll out in the weeds to rust. So, I'm getting it out of here one way or another while it's still a good motorcycle. I wouldn't want the tires to rot off of it waiting for MR. Procrastinator to come and collect it. So, here you go. It's a 1985 RZ500 Yamaha. It's recently been bored 1st oversize. Well, actually, it's been over a year ago. But it's just been sitting in my shop since then waiting for Mr. Procrastination to come and get it. So, only a very few miles on the top-end from running it up and down the road in front of my shop trying to keep the gas from going bad every time MR. Procrastinator says he's coming to get it. I just cleaned the carbs about a month ago and put fresh gas in it because Mr. Procrastinator said he was finally going to come and get it (again!). But as usual, he didn't show up (imagine that). So, it starts & runs fine. All the electrics work. I don't know if the battery is going to last much longer though since it has been mostly sitting around for a year thanks to the Master Procrastinator. I've kept it on a tender. So, it might be OK for a while yet. It has a clear title. So getting a plate for it should be no problem. I'm starting this auction with a huge opening bid so Procrastinators can have fun looking it. If it doesn't sell a guy in MN said he would keep the battery charged and the gas from going bad.
Payment will be due within 1 week of auction end, NO EXCEPTIONS. I will NOT store this thing more than 2 weeks. If you are related to MR. Procrastinator you loose it and your payment.

Motorcycle Live and a few of my favourite things for 2013
Tue, 27 Nov 2012There is lots of shiny new metal on show at Motorcyclelive this year but for me it’s the new Triumph Daytona 675 that steals the show. We’ve been starved of brand new models in the Supersports segment for years but for me the latest Trumpet has made the wait worthwhile. And if its performance matches its looks then I reckon the 2013 bike of the year is a foregone conclusion. The sleek curvy nose contrasts perfectly with the more pointy angular rear end and new side mounted silencer. It is lighter, more powerful and revs harder with much work on on mass centralisation to further improve handling. Few of us have a whole lot of spare cash these days but £8899 for the standard model seems a fair price for such an awesome bike. That said I’d have to consider selling the granny and granddad to find the extra £1700 for the 675R. Available early next year, and surely the perfect all round track day tool, this beauty comes with upgraded suspension, brakes, ABS, a quickshifter and some nice carbon detailing. The white 675R on display at the show looked even better in the flesh than previous images I’d seen so be careful or you might find yourself handing over a deposit. With no money left from the Triumph stand you’ll need your six special numbers to come up for my second favourite show item the AGV Pista GP Project 46. Although road legal this extremely light, full carbon helmet is designed especially for racing with a huge field of vision, extensive ventilation and superb ergonomics. It also comes with earplugs which suggests there may be some compromise in the noise department but it is still an incredible piece of engineering. At £799, this special Pista is also an incredible price but there will only be one hundred available and Raceways Yamaha reckon they are going fast.
Reunions Are Best Done On Motorcycles
Tue, 09 Jul 2013When we were kids, life was much simpler. We could play outside all day without a care in the world. If we were lucky, our parents bought us dirtbikes to use in the field, or in Australian Mark Toia‘s case, his favorite hill.
