Yamaha Other description

I have a 1981 Yamaha xs850 street bike, everything is here except the seat and tank. even the key is with it. I have a tank I was gonna fab up to make work and look decent. drive shaft bike, it is not broken or seized up. motor is free in the bike. I do not have a battery but I jumped it off and it spun over fine, this is a three cyl bike. open headers. I took the turn signals off, but still have them. headlamp works but has a bad fuse, just needs some work on the wiring, its all connected right but someone did a half butt job. brakes need to be bled. just don't have time to keep working on it. call or text at 980-522-XXXX. $325 O.B.O.

Suzuka Eight Hour capers

Mon, 05 Sep 2011

Chatting to TT legend John McGuiness recently about his first Suzuka Eight Hour experience got me thinking of a few capers the boys and me managed a few years back at what is still Japan's most important race of the season. It is a unique event that starts at 11am and finishes at 7pm making  it a pukka endurance race as the last hour is run with headlights on in the dark. It is essentially an eight hour sprint that showcases the trickest endurance machinery and manufacturer’s sales can be affected the following year depending on who wins or loses.

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.
