Yamaha 305 scrambler description

This is a beautiful Yamaha 305 Scrambler. Much more rare than the Yamaha Big Bear Scrambler 250 (YDS3-C). This bike is in excellent overall condition. It has recently gone through a nut and bolt restoration. The top of the engine was recently rebuilt with new NOS parts including rods, bearings, pistons, etc.by Will Powell of Cyclerestorer. The bore went back .25 over. All new rubber, cables, etc. The paint is professional show quality, deep black. All chrome replated triple chrome. Good tires, tubes and rims. Seat is supple, no rips tears or marks.

The bike starts right up idles smoothly no funny noises. Clutch and transmission work as it should. All electrical working properly. There is a slight weeping from the petcock when fuel is selected on, may correct itself as the rubber gasket swells or need a new tension washer.

Clear title in my name.
I believe the Buy It Now price to be very fair, reflecting the outstanding condition and rarity of the bike. How many Honda CL305's are currently listed on E-Bay?

Wayne Rainey Visits Yamaha Racing HQ

Thu, 08 Sep 2011

Racing legend and three-time 500cc Grand Prix Champion Wayne Rainey paid a visit to Yamaha Motor Racing’s headquarters just outside of Milan, Italy. The 1990-1992 World Champion met with employees of Yamaha Racing, Yamaha Motor Italy and Yamaha Motor RD Europe and officially opened a new boardroom named in his honor. Rainey, along with current Yamaha factory MotoGP racers Jorge Lorenzo and Ben Spies, took time to take photographs and sign autographs with the Yamaha staff.

I can die happy!

As an eighteen year old Kenny Roberts was my bike racing God.  I loved Barry Sheene but as a Yamaha FS1E rider I always wanted the little American to win simply because his bike resembled mine.  The coverage of Grand Prix in the late seventies was sketchy but I clearly remember watching the epic Sheene/Roberts battle unfold at the Silverstone GP on my council estate telly.  The Dutchman, Wil Hartog was hanging in there for a while but as the laps unfolded it became a two way battle with Sheene looking favourite to win.  Sheene lost the most time as the pair lapped a certain George Fogarty so my hero Roberts eventually won by just three hundredths of a second.  I’m not sure what happened next but being a Sunday we would no doubt be skidding around later in the day at the Pines chippie pretending to be Roberts and Sheene.  Fast forward thirty four years and a boyhood fantasy came true as I headed out on Chris Wilson’s 1980 Roberts machine for the Barry Sheene tribute laps at last weekend’s Moto GP.  It crackled into life instantly and felt as sharp as any of the more modern 500s I used to race.  The temperature gauge had a maximum marker on 60 degrees so to begin with I was nervous as it didn’t move but being a hot day (although still keeping my hand on the clutch) I convinced myself it wasn’t working.    The bike felt tiny, not helped by the fact I only just squeezed into my 1989 Marlboro Yamaha leathers.  It still felt rapid though as I played out the 1979 classic in my head while getting tucked in down the Hanger straight.  Steve Parrish was also out there on one of Barry’s 500cc Heron Suzukis so we did our best to copy the famous last lap at Woodcote Corner where Sheene came so close to winning his home GP. As a lad I would have said the chances of me riding round Silverstone on a GP winning Kenny Roberts machine were zero, but in the words of Gabrielle, dreams can come true!
