Yamaha YZ description

1979 Yamaha YZ400

Winner of 2005 AHRMA National Championship

Formerly owned by the late Mike Owens, who used it to win the 2005 AHRMA Historic 500cc Expert Championship in Post-Vintage Motocross. After its title-winning days, the bike went on static display in Owens' extensive collection of vintage dirt bikes, while he turned his attention to the Legends & Heroes Motocross Museum. In race-prepped condition, with top-end work by Boyko Racing and suspension rebuilt by DeWayne Jones, the YZ has been in a private collection since Owens' passing in 2015, and remains unridden. It should need only a simple recommissioning to be track-ready once more. Mileage is obviously low, though the exact amount is unknown. The bike is sold on a bill of sale, no title. Also listed in a separate auction is Owens' two-time title-winning 1976 YZ125X.

And it's goodbye from him

Tue, 17 Aug 2010

THIS IS Valentino Rossi's farewell letter to his Fiat Yamaha team following the announcement the flambouyant Italian is to head to Ducati MotoGP in 2011.The hand-written letter, mistakes and all, is written in almost a 'my first romance' kinda way. It's touching, if a little bizarre. Some of the letter reads:“Unfortunately even the most beautiful love stories finish, but they leave a lot of wonderful memories, like when my M1 and I kissed for the first time on the grass at Welkom, when she looked straight in my eyes and told me ‘I love you!'"Somehow, we can't see Casey Stoner gushing quite as freely when he leaves Ducati for Repsol Honda.
