Yamaha 250 V-Twin Cafe Racer



Up for sale is a Custom built Yamaha Virago Xv250 Cafe racer, street titled and ready for a rider. Bike Is currently featured on two online custom motorcycle web sights (see links below). Engine has 8k miles on it and is like new, this is a complete build but is a very easy to ride and reliable bike even for first time riders. Everything on bike is either new or rebuilt.....own a easy to ride custom bike that turns heads everywhere you go!
This bike started life as a 1995 Yamaha Xv250 Virago, the bike that many fall in love with at the riders safety training classes all over the world. The wheelbase was shortened 4" and it was de-raked to 24.5 degrees. Subframe and swingarm are custom along with the exhaust. The sound this bike makes is incredible, breathing through a downdraft carb with a factory velocity stack and calculated air intake plenum. Then sucked in with some less than boring factory camshafts and two fairly high compression ratio cylinders. After all of that comes the pleasing part, exhaust gasses are forced out of equal length stainless steel head pipes and on out the under seat tail pipes. The paint gives it a retro Yamaha look that many like along with the 18" aluminum mx wheels. For proper riding position, a set of aluminum rear sets were adapted from a road race bike on one end and a set of simple drag bars on the other end.

What We Ain’t Getting: Yamaha Race-Blu Livery for R1, R6 and R125

Thu, 13 Sep 2012

We reported earlier today Yamaha Motor USA unveiled new colors and graphics for its 2013 YZF-R1 and YZF-R6. Mechanically unchanged from last year’s models, Yamaha‘s two sportbikes each get three color options including a “Team Yamaha” blue and white model. What Yamaha isn’t offering to its U.S.

Lorenzo Signs Two-Year Extension with Yamaha

Thu, 07 Aug 2014

Two-time MotoGP Champion Jorge Lorenzo has signed a contract extension with Yamaha to see him race on the company’s factory team through the 2016 season. The signing comes as no real surprise, following similar two-year contract extensions for teammate Valentino Rossi and Repsol Honda’s Marc Marquez and Dani Pedrosa. Ducati also confirmed it would field Andrea Dovizioso and Andrea Iannone next season, so unless Lorenzo wanted to spend a season or two developing Suzuki‘s or Aprilia‘s new prototypes, Lorenzo’s only option for a factory ride was to re-sign with Yamaha.

The perfect classified advert

Fri, 21 Jun 2013

Forget “One careful owner, low mileage, full service history” – when it comes to penning classifieds we can all learn from Kyle Miller and Joe Strachila who’ve plundered their marketing genius to come up with the best scooter advert we’ve ever seen. The pair, from Seattle, became an internet sensation last year when they created a hyperbole-packed ad for $700-worth of frankly rubbish 1995 Pontiac Grand-Am. Now they’ve pulled the same trick to get rid of a Y2K Yamaha SH50 (the comically-named ‘Razz’), advertising it on Cragslist as “the fulfilment of your wildest fantasies”.
