Yamaha XS description

 1978 Yamaha XS500. Ready to ride! Pictures speak for themselves. Lots of work done so it is ready to go. Everything works including electric start. Has Supertrapp mufflers which sound awesome. Includes original taillight assembly to return to stock. Has the factory oil filter conversion so filters are easy and inexpensive to replace.  Bike needs nothing to ride.

These bikes are similar to the XS650 but know to handle better and are lighter. I like the look of them too. This was the last and best year of the 500's.

New parts include:

-Fresh full synthetic oil change and filter
-New tires
-Mike's XS new fuel petcocks, lines, and filters
-Seat slightly modified and recovered
-New taillight/brake assembly

I am sure there is more that I am missing. Let me know if you have any questions.

Bike is for sale locally.  I have the right to end auction at any item as long as there are no open offers pending through Ebay.  Thanks!

Bike Week Is Here!

It’s been a long, cold winter in most of the US, but it’s always sunny in Florida. And that’s why every year around this time tens of thousands of motorcycle enthusiasts descend on Daytona Beach for Bike Week! Motorcycle.com will have our boots – and wheels – on the ground.

Not the most sensible of commuters..

Wed, 04 Apr 2012

This is the white and gold 2012 Yamaha R1. It's also the bike I shall be commuting on for the next 8 months. The crouched riding position and murderous amounts of power may not be ideally suited for the London grind, but with plenty of track action planned I have to make some compromises. There are three fresh colours to choose from.

Isle of Man TT 2014: Monster Supersport TT 1 Results

Mon, 02 Jun 2014

Gary Johnson narrowly beat out Bruce Anstey to take the first of two Supersport races at the 2014 Isle of Man TT. Riding the Daytona 675, Johnson’s win was the first for Triumph since 2003, ironically, with Anstey taking the victory that year in the Junior 600cc class. The race started three hours behind schedule due to fog, but once it began it quickly became a duel between Johnson and Anstey.
