Yamaha V Max description

1988 Yamaha V Max. I recently bought this bike and started doing some of the work needed. The bike had been sitting for some time. The original air box is gone and was replaced with separate pods. It has Supertrapp exhaust. And the carbs probably need to be adjusted better than I am capable of doing. I just put a brand new battery in it and the bike fires right up (sound awesome) idles fine. The throttle response is not real good until the rpms come up then it responses just fine. The engine sounds great. No oil leaks. No funny sounds what so ever. I just put new spark plugs in. New battery. The front and rear tires are brand new. The shaft drive is new. But now the clutch is out. I was told by a shop that they think the master cylinder needs to be rebuilt because there is no pressure in the clutch lever. I have a rebuilt kit I bought that I will throw in. The bike just needs somebody to spend some time on it. And I honestly believe it could be a great bike. The wheels aren't in the greatest shape. But that's just my opinion. Please look at the pictures carefully and then ask any questions you might have. There are back fees on the bike for Ca. residents of approx. $700. But I am sure those can be reduced seeing how the bike has not been registered since 2004. Your more than happy to come check the bike out. Like I said the engine sounds great! All the electrical works. The bike has a clean title. And I have the original key. A $500 non refundable deposit will need to paid by the winning bidder within 48 hours of the auction ending. The remaining amount will need to be paid within 5 days. You can pay the balance with cash in person at the time of pick up. Shipping is the winning bidders responsibility. But I will be more than happy to assist in any way I can. This bike is being sold as is with no warranty. Like I said I will be more than happy to answer any questions. This bike has a lot of potential. And my starting price is very low. Thanks 4 looking and good luck if your bidding

Yamalube Motor Oil Video is Educational, British, and Brainwashing

Tue, 16 Jun 2009

Yamaha Motor Europe have just posted a new video up on Youtube about their Yamalube motor oil and why you should use it on your Yamaha products.  They are pretty damn convincing or very good at brainwashing! The video is pretty educational, explaining how motorcycle engines and car engines are very different, what a motorcycle engine really needs, and why Yamalube is very well suited for the job. Various graphs, charts, shots of scientists making oil, and the accented British narrator have further convinced me that I need to get Yamalube and perhaps even be adding it into my morning bowl of cereal.

Brammo Earns Seventh Place Against Gas Bikes

Mon, 06 May 2013

This past weekend, Brammo arrived to Sonoma Raceway in Central California ready to do battle. Only this time the electric sportbike manufacturer would be trading blows not with other electric bikes, but with their ICE counterparts at the second round of the American Federation of Motorcyclists series — one of the oldest club racing organizations in the country. We recently mentioned Brammo’s eligibility with AFM, and this weekend was the first outing. Team Icon Brammo and its two riders Eric Bostrom and Steve Atlas competed on the Empulse RR machines while third rider, Shelina Moreda, rode the Team Parker Brammo Empulse TTX — a modified version of the road-legal Empulse.
