Yamaha Other description

1977 Yamaha XS-750, Shaft Drive in good/very terrific condition. 1 owner for 20yrs and he was very picky about its care. I recently purchased it from the estate .It was ridden every year except the last two years. (20,000 mis ) It never had any mechanical issues. The engine oil was changed with (Amsoil 10W40 & K&N oil filter), drained, flushed and re-filled the shaft-drive rear gear housing (Amsoil Synthetic 75/90 speed oil), installed a new battery, tensioned the cam chain, filled tank with premium (tank is very clean inside with no rust), and installed new NGK spark plugs. Both tires are in very terrific condition. It runs, shifts, brakes and rides great. The king/queen seat is very comfortable. ( the original Yamaha seat is also available ) It cruises smoothly at 60 mph at 4,000 RPM. The engine sounds very tight and does not smoke. Bike has some type of after-market three into 1 exhaust system. (Bike is not loud. has a nice, low tone) Everything on bikes works except the radio (which was working last week) and one of the LED running lamps.There is a spare front wheel ( rim ) and the stock seat.Interesting trades consideredCall Don

And it's goodbye from him

Tue, 17 Aug 2010

THIS IS Valentino Rossi's farewell letter to his Fiat Yamaha team following the announcement the flambouyant Italian is to head to Ducati MotoGP in 2011.The hand-written letter, mistakes and all, is written in almost a 'my first romance' kinda way. It's touching, if a little bizarre. Some of the letter reads:“Unfortunately even the most beautiful love stories finish, but they leave a lot of wonderful memories, like when my M1 and I kissed for the first time on the grass at Welkom, when she looked straight in my eyes and told me ‘I love you!'"Somehow, we can't see Casey Stoner gushing quite as freely when he leaves Ducati for Repsol Honda.
