Yamaha XT description
1996 Yamaha XT 225 dual sport motorcycle. Single cylinder, 4 stroke air cooled, electric start with a mono shock adjustable suspension.
I bought this bike 3 years ago for my son, to ride to school, practice and events, ect.(FYI In Arkansas a 14 year old can legally ride a motorcycle under 249cc anywhere. Check your laws.)
I have installed new: Battery, Brakes, Sprockets, Fuel Valve, Chain, Air Cleaner, Dyna Port Carb Kit and Rear Tire.(Rear tire has less than 50 miles! Front tire has 50-55% tread.)
This is an Excellent Bike. It runs great and gets phenominal mileage! (67 mpg plus for my kid, 58 with a 260 lb rider) It will cruise easily at 60 -65 but does slow on hills. It will top a decent hill with a 260 lb rider at 48 mph in high gear. (Would've been faster if shifted down but wanted to check it)
It will go anywhere you want to drive it.
It uses NO oil.
The ONLY problems are: Cracked signal light (my son let it fall over in diveway) its cracked but still in tact and works fine (see pic) Also has a few cosmetic scratches.(handlebars from tiedowns and a few on plastic from gen use)
This is a great bike for a starter bike(its not to tall) run around bike, haul on your RV, cattle checker or Gas Saver. Its older but in perfect condition.
NOTE: This item is for sale locally and auction may end at any time without notice.

Ben Spies Video Interview on 2012 MotoGP Season [Video]
Thu, 22 Mar 2012Yamaha Factory Racing today posted on its YouTube page a video interview with Ben “Elbowz” Spies, in which Spies discusses the soon to start 2012 season of MotoGP. In his usual calm, cool and under control manner Spies speaks frankly on how he prefers the 1000cc GP machine, saying it suits his style (elbows out!) better than the previous seasons’ 800cc bikes because the extra torque and horsepower of the liter-class bikes are, essentially, better matched to his physical stature. Spies also answers honestly the question of who he thinks he needs to keep an eye in 2012, including his teammate, Jorge Lorenzo.
