Yamaha XS description

This bike has the three main ingredients of a bobber project.  1. Runs strong (and loud) with a strong clutch/transmission. 2. Drives straight on a strong frame with very good tires. 3. Has a clear title.  Starts right up.  


If you want to restore it, it can be done but: dent in tank, rear fender bent, seat cover is shot, turn signals, mirrors, mufflers, one side cover missing.  The front master cylinder will need a rebuild kit.  There are quick connectors here/there.  Speed/tach works.  Starter works.

If you really want to restore it I have a nice tank, turn signals and intake case, master cylinder from an 1981 650 we can make a deal.

These Yamaha twins make the best custom bikes.  They sound good and look awesome.  Just Google and you will see what I mean....

How do 1000s compare to the 800s

Wed, 09 Nov 2011

Now MotoGP has completed its transformation from 800 to 1000cc, how do the lap times between the different bikes compare using Valencia and the post-season test as a benchmark.. Yesterday, Dani Pedrosa was the quickest 1000 on his Honda RC213V setting a time of 1:32.186. To find the quickest time from the outgoing 800 era you have to look at his current Repsol Honda team-mate, Casey Stoner, but it wasn't set on a Honda.

Used: Alpinestars Joey Canvas shoes review

Wed, 11 Sep 2013

The brief I gave to my girlfriend before packing for our little California road-trip was simple: “No hair straighteners, no high-heels and no hand bags!” So, I had to honour the whole ‘packing light’ thing too ...or risk a week of abuse. I picked up these shoes as I thought they’d double as decent riding gear for the Yamaha XVS650 and Ducati Diavel we had lined up but they also looked perfect for wearing with jeans when we’d dumped the bike and were heading out to explore the sights. They don’t feature any ‘real’ armour but they are made from a tough yet flexible canvas and they feature additional protection around the ankle.

The International Motorcycling Federation (FIM) has released an updated list of motorcycles homologated for the 2013 Superbike, Supersport, and Superstock racing season. Notable additions include the new BMW S1000RR HP4, the MV Agusta F3 and the Superbike-spec Ducati 1199 Panigale R. To qualify a production-based racebike for FIM homologations, manufacturers have to meet certain production thresholds.
