Yamaha XT description

Up for sale is my trusty xt 225.   I live in Wisconsin so I never ride it.  Its either winter, raining, or no time.  So it has a whooping 4500 miles on it over 20 years of life.  I bought it in 2011 and ride it about 200 miles a year, so time to sell it. 

I dropped it once in my garage and dented the tank.  Then I had it in the back of my truck and dropped it and bent the bars.  Then last fall, I was goofing off on some sand on the road and laid it down dented the left side further as seen in photos.  The left mirror came off in the back of the truck when I dropped it in the bed of my flatbed.  So, its a little beat up but not from hammering it on the trails.  

Anyhow, it has a new back tire, new luggage rack and runs like a top.  But, it has been 3 years since the carb has been worked on so it needs some adjustment as it leaks out the overflow of the carb when the tank is full and the bike is parked if the fuel cock is not turned off. 

$1500 is firm and it ships from 54601.   email me through ebay if you need to talk to me. I take ebaying seriously and prefer paypal.   Thanks for looking and good luck

We ran a couple of stories last week - both, coincidentally, about new Kawasakis. One was the first peek of the new ZX10R – hot stuff you’d imagine – the other, the new W800 retro parallel twin. I suppose it shouldn’t have shocked us, which story was most popular in terms of hits but it really does mark a seismic shifts in British biking attitudes that the W800 story doubled the hits of the ZX10 piece.
