Yamaha Other description

1981 Yamaha DT 175 Enduro Dirt Motorcycle that has a red fuel tank & side covers with very minor wear. The fenders are white, the frame, seat, & engine are black in color. The bike has a little over 7,500 miles, and is still currently being ridden daily. Newer tires that have plenty of tread life left. Motorcycle just had an entire tune up last spring that included new spark plug, spark plug cap, gearbox oil, two stroke oil, full on carburetor rebuild with a new Boyesen Brand reed valve, all the control cables have been adjusted properly. The entire electrical system works. All the turn signals, taillight, headlight low & high beam, horn, ignition and engine shutoff switch, everything works. This bike is in really good condition and shape with no real major damage to the bike whatsoever considering it's age. It is a very easy bike to turn key, kick start, and ride off down the road and trails. This enduro dual sport bike has a clean & clear title, with current registration for both on-road and off-road within the state of Minnesota. On-road tabs good through February 2014, and the off-road tabs are good through 2015. There is a super small dime size amount of two stroke oil leaking around the oil pump area. I am not sure if it is the oil line at the connection or the pump body gasket itself. Regardless, the bike runs, drives, brakes just fine. Motorcycle is being sold as-is, without a warranty.

Yamaha will give a third wheel to its scooter

Sun, 05 May 2019

The Japanese did not have enough unusual Niken bikes so they patented the design of a new 3-wheeler scooter. The device will probably be called the Tricity 300 and will presumably be powered by a 292cc engine from the 28hp XMax 300 maxi-scooter. We're looking forward to the debut of the production version at the end of the year at EICMA.

Yamaha Pro Am madness, the best one make championship ever?

Sat, 18 Dec 2010

I’m biased of course, but the best one make road race championship has to be the Yamaha RD 350LC Pro Am series. Back in the days when manufacturers had spare cash (1980 to be precise), Mitsui Yamaha organised this televised championship at major British race meetings to promote the recently launched, and now iconic, Yamaha RD350LC. Twenty four riders (twelve established and twelve rookies) were chosen by a panel of experts then given a completely free season of racing with a very generous prize fund thrown in.

New: Venhill 888 fast-action twistgrips

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

CONTROL specialist Venhill has launched its new 888 range of bike-specific fast action twistgrips.  Supplied complete with the company's top of the range Featherlight cables, the kits are designed for a straightforward replacement of the factory-fitted equipment.  Bike-specific kits are now available for the Honda CBR600F, Kawasaki ZX-6R/ZX-10R, Suzuki GSX-R600/750, Triumph 675 Daytona and Yamaha R1/R6, among others, with prices from £105. Here's Venhill's description of the new product: "Manufactured with a robust CNC machined alloy body, the 888 fast action twistgrip provides a choice of two settings and is supplied with two rotors so that riders can select the throttle action that best suits the riding conditions.  Settings can be changed swiftly by undoing the two set screws securing the throttle body and changing the rotor. On the fastest setting there is 80° of rotation, (taking up 36mm of the cable), which is typically 45% faster than 'standard' throttles.
