Yamaha Other description

Yamaha yr1 1967 Up for auction is a 1967 Yamaha Yr1 350cc original motorcycle. I believe it to be a 1 or two owner motorcycle due to the mileage the bike literally has only 5200 mis on it. The bike is really clean for its age, although the chrome and paint is a little worn out, the internal functional parts on this bike are really clean. The bike does have good compression and the motor is free ( yes the kicker works). The inside of the tank is like new and never had rust in it, just like the gas tank the oil tank is really clean.The bike currently does not run, I bought it with the intention to make it run but never got to it so I'm just going to sell it now because I need the money. I have owned a lot of these 2 stroke bikes and firmly believe it should fire up with a simple tune up, the points still move and appear to be gap correctly,the oil injection system is complete and should do its job once refilled and primed, and the wiring is all complete from what I can see but I did pop the seat and head light lens off so you can see for your self. The bike does not come with paper work just a bill of sale. This is a very rare find due to the fact that in 1967 Yamaha's 350 was the fasted bike they ever made back in 67, this bike was only made for 1 yr, and the mileage of the bike. The bike still has the original tire fill which is very rare to have the tire pump with its original bike.The bike does not have its key but really is not that big of a deal you can get keys direct from yamaha or on ebay. This bike is truly my favorite yamaha ever made and would have loved to kept it, so with that said I set a reserve on the bike because if I don't get what I need out of it it will be built in the next month or 2 then be back on ebay to sell. If you want to know anything about the bike feel free to email me through ebay or call me at 424 400 XXXX just ask for Brandon. Look out for more bikes to come from me in the future. Thank you and bid to win.

The Japanese oddity to naming teams

Wed, 28 Jul 2010

Whenever the calendar shifts to a major Japanese race, such as the Suzuka 8hr, one of the more amusing things to do is glance down the team sheet This years highlight for me has to be team Moto Bum, with other stand outs including aprilia D.D.BOYS, Team Etching Factory Yamaha and MITO MOTO & e'freaks Honda. Looking back through the ages some of the great Japanese team names have been Burning Blood Racing Team, Dog Fight Racing and Team Moto Space amongst others.

Jefferies' TT V&M R1 for sale

Tue, 26 Apr 2011

We got a tip-off about a former David Jefferies TT R1 for sale on eBay. The owner says it's from the 1998 TT but I'm pretty sure it was the one he raced in 1999. Here's a little bit more background about the V&M TT effort in 1999: In 1990 Jack Valentine gave up racing to concentrate on running V&M Racing, and after being sacked by Honda at the end of the 1998 season, the team set about to do some giant killing.
