Yamaha YZ description
1983 Yamaha YZ 125K in excellent running condition. I purchased this bike two years ago in original condition to race in vintage motocross races here in Florida. I have had a blast racing it and have been fairly successful, frequently finishing in first or second in the 1980-1985 Open Class (all cc size bikes). I now want to purchase a pre 1975 vintage motocross bike. As you can see in the pictures, I use aftermarket number plates when I race as the originals are rare. The aftermarket plates are not included with the bike.
1983 was a great year for the YZ 125. Yamaha had figured out water-cooled engines by this point, as well as '83 being the first year for Yamaha Power Valve, which helps with low end torque as well as top end speed. As I mentioned earlier, I bought this bike as an original survivor. All plastics are OEM Yamaha that have been polished. I get a ton of compliments regarding them. The front fender is NOS, as this is the only piece of plastic that is still readily available. I have had all the following done to the bike since owning it. All engine work professionally done by a vintage motorcycle shop here in Jacksonville, FL. -New top and bottom end to include cylinder bore, new piston and ring, and new crank and bearings. Less than 5 hours. This alone cost $1500 -Complete Carburetor disassembly with cleaning and rejetting -New original Reed Valves -New water impeller with water seal -All new engine gaskets -Front forks and rear monoshock rebuilt -New front and rear Michelin XC intermediate terrain tires with new tubes and rim locks -New O-ring Chain -New Front and Rear Sprockets -New Front Brake Cable -New Air Filter I do not have a title for it. Ebay made me put something. Honda Kawasaki Suzuki KTM 125 250 450 YZ CR RM SX KX Maico |

An Island tour with a legend
Fri, 17 Sep 2010What you are watching is a highlight of Mike Hailwood's segment from the racing documentary Take it to the Limit - A Motorcycle Odyssey. The Yamaha - built by the extraordinary Kel Carruthers - that Hailwood is riding in the clip featured a unique frame with the camera housed within. The voice-over recording provided by Hailwood was done by taping a small mic to the bottom of his lip so he could dictate his guide to the 37.73 mile route.
Used Review: Dainese Jerico R winter gloves
Fri, 04 Mar 2011DAINESE JERICO-R Being stuck up a mountain with your bike buried to the pegs in snow is not the best place to be a week before Christmas, especially when its 1200kms from home. Only owning perforated summer gloves is also far from ideal. This is the situation I found myself in and seeing as everything in Italy costs a million Euros, I wasn’t prepared to spend a fortune on a set of discontinued Oxford heated grips from the local motocross shop. A very pretty girl called Fanny at Chitrrai Yamaha, near Perugia, showed me the winter glove options.
