1972 Yamaha XS650 (XS2) Second year of this classic British Twin designed bike with reliable Japanese underpinnings Tasteful Cafe Bars & Seat, all else is Stock and intact 2 years and less than 1000 miles on High Compression Rebuilt Engine 160 PSI in both cylinders Custom Exhaust is Loud and Sounds Awesome (think Harley) Carbs cleaned, Oil Changed and Tune Up performed Spring 2016 Starts First Kick even after sitting for over a week New Parts include Starter Relay, Gas Cap, Tank Badges, Grips, Bar Ends, Battery Tender Pigtail Ride the bike around the city and on 2 hr. round trips to work pretty regularly. Don't get to ride as much as I used to though and I've got two bikes so can't give them both the justice they deserve so sadly I'm letting go of this bad boy. Clean PA Title in Hand Bike doesn't really need anything but if you want to nit pick here are 3 things that could be improved: -Tail, Brake & Head Lights high & low all work but blinkers do not. Needs a new flasher I think. I just use hand signals when in busy traffic. -Battery is dead. If you want to use the electric starter then you'll have to replace the battery. Kicking it is cooler anyway so I've been riding it w/ this dead battery for over a year now. -Small cosmetic flaws here and there as to be expected on a 44 yr. bike. Let's call it Patina. Bike is available for local pick up. Shipping can be arranged at buyers expense. I've successfully used Uship for jobs like this in the past. Call or message me with any questions you have. -Bill 61zero-22zero-77zero8 |

Day 2 Dakar 2014: Sunderland Wins First Special Stage
Mon, 06 Jan 2014Honda won the second day of competition with Team HRC’s Sam Sunderland claiming victory in the first special stage of this year’s Dakar. Sunderland has had a frustrating time at previous Dakars, dropping out after three days of racing in 2012 and withdrawing a month before last year’s event due to fracturing both his wrists. Today, however, Sunderland made a grand entrance into the club of elite riders by brilliantly winning his first special stage of this year’s Dakar. Having started well behind his teammate, Joan Barreda, the 23-year old Brit superbly overtook Michael Metge and Juan Pedrero on the first part of the route.
