Yamaha XJ650 description

I bought this last year with the intentions of fixing it as as my project.  Well that plan has changed - I just don't have time with all of my house projects/chores.

I bought it from the 2nd owner... the title that was in his name was from 1987.  He bought it from his buddy in 1987.  He said the fuel pump went out years ago & he switched it to gravity feed.  He said he couldn't find a working fuel pump for under $400 when it failed which is why he switched it.  Well the turbo wouldn't spool without the fuel pump, so he just parked it in his garage.

Well I bought it & found a rather expensive fuel pump & I bought a full matching lockset (he had lost one key at some point so it currently has 2 different keys).

Also comes with repair manuals & a bucket of parts for the old fuel pump.

I never heard it ran... but this would be a sweet bike for someone with the time & know-how.  Clean the carbs & change the fluids & throw in a battery & you could be good to go.

Bike is located in Greenwood, Indiana.  I can help load onto a trailer.

2012 Yamaha YZ450F Announced

Thu, 09 Jun 2011

Yamaha gave its YZ450F a major update for 2010 with its reversed engine layout so it should be no surprised the motocrosser received just a few updates for 2012. Besides the usual graphical updates, the 2012 Yamaha YZ450F receives a new exhaust system to meet 94dB competition requirements. Fuel injection settings have also been tweaked for smoother response at low to mid revs.

Motorcycle Live and a few of my favourite things for 2013

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

There 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.        

2014 Yamaha MT-125 Announced for Europe

Wed, 07 May 2014

Yamaha has added a new 125cc model to its suddenly burgeoning MT series of naked streetbikes in the European market. The 2014 Yamaha MT-125 joins the MT-07, the MT-09 and the MT-09 Street Rally, all of which were introduced in the last year. Unfortunately for the moment only the MT-09 has been announced for the U.S.
