Howdy, Have this near bone stock 1974 DT250 my lousy back won't let me ride anymore, so here ya go. All original except rear turn signals, the tool kit is still under the seat, amazing. On original bore, rings still almost shiny, no seizure marks, ready to go and go and go. Tires are about 3/4 tread left, oil injection system still working so no pre-mixing needed. Nice that this model's sprockets can be flipped for double the life when needed in the future, these have 12K miles, not bad. Chain outer links are rusty from when it sat out for a long time, chain itself I cleaned, only 1" stretch, still good. No rust in tank, replaced fuel lines and filter. Starts first kick (has a fresh plug), runs like a bat, embarrassingly fun with the low gearing that's on it, ring-ding it through the gears and you're only doing 50mph, fun. Air cleaner is K&N type, needs an oiling. Wheels are straight, no rust to speak of. Only negative is seat, the pan rusted when sitting, I put the funky cover on it wears now. Your butt won't know the difference. Not sure what else to say, except I'd put my grand kids on it, I consider it safe and sure. AZ title notarized and ready to go. Will consider using my van to deliver it once paid for at say a buck a mile one way? Thanks, Bruce in Tombstone. PS, might swap for a DSL, RPK or Dragonov with scope and extras, I'm an FFL.

Yamaha to Cut Motorcycle Production in 2009
Thu, 26 Feb 2009With mounting inventories coupled with a drop in demand, Yamaha will be cutting its motorcycle production in Japan by 24 percent this year or to about 260,000 total units; one newspaper reported this would be a 40-year low for the manufacture. Yamaha plans to cut production for motorcycles and other products by 30 percent in the Americas, 20 percent in Europe but will maintain production levels in Asia where demand has not dropped off. The company is forecasting its group sales to fall 22 percent with an operating loss of about $300 million.
I can die happy!
Wed, 04 Sep 2013As 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!
