Yamaha XS description

I'm selling my '78 XS400 tracker. I've put a ton of work, custom and new parts into the bike. Here's a list although I'm sure I'll forget some things:

-Modified frame, shaved of all un-needed tabs, with XS650 rear loop added
-XS650 front end and wheel, lowered, new seals and fluids 
-Sportster tank with custom mounts and petcock bung
-Custom seat
-Vintage cocktail shaker mufflers, and Unity Headlight
-Custom battery box, splash plate, rear fender, cut down stock front fender
-New, minimal wiring
-New: battery, dual sport tires, bars, mirror, grips, cables, taillight, headlight bulb (very bright spotlight), shocks, UNI air filters, stainless brake lines, lug wires, Magura front master cylinder
-Rebuilt rear caliper, good used front caliper
-Custom headlight shroud
-Points adjusted
-Carbs ultrasonicly cleaned and jetted for the pods and the pipes

The bike only has 3600 original miles (I have the original speedo). It runs great, stops quickly, and handles like its on rails. The bike is super fast for a 400, and is a 6 speed too! The charging system is working properly as well. The paint and upholstery aren't perfect, I did them myself. I have a clean title from the previous owner. 



 I'm located up in Kingston but can deliver to the city or anywhere within 100 miles for $1 a loaded mile. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer but I can drop it off at a shipper, or meet them locally. $500 deposit on PayPal required within 48 hours of the auctions close, the rest due in cash upon pickup, unless other agreements are made.

Yamaha Kicks Off 2013 MotoGP Promotional Campaign with Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo – Video

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

We’re just over two weeks into the new year which means it’s time for MotoGP teams to start the promotional push for their 2013 MotoGP programs. Ducati is set to reveal its Desmosedici GP13 today at its annual Wrooom ski event with Ferrari‘s Formula One team later today, but Yamaha has gotten the jump on its Italian rival by releasing new photographs and a video of ex-Ducati rider Valentino Rossi and reigning World Champion Jorge Lorenzo. Also revealed is the 2013 Yamaha M1, though the racebike is shrouded in graphical overlays of its pilots and devoid of any sponsor logos including the newly signed supporter Monster Energy.

Not the most sensible of commuters..

Wed, 04 Apr 2012

This is the white and gold 2012 Yamaha R1. It's also the bike I shall be commuting on for the next 8 months. The crouched riding position and murderous amounts of power may not be ideally suited for the London grind, but with plenty of track action planned I have to make some compromises. There are three fresh colours to choose from.
