Yamaha Other description
This is my Yamaha 650 Turbo Seca. It is in excellent condition. Everything works, including all lights, gauges, warning lights, signals, etc.
The compression on all four cylinders is 125 psi, about as good as you can get. I have recently rebuilt all four carbs with complete carb kits, not just cleaned them and replace a few gaskets. The petcock was rebuilt (very important with these bikes as otherwise fuel will leak through the carbs into the crankcase and through the turbo), replaced all spark plugs, all fluids, rebuilt the front brake calipers with new NOS Yamaha kits, replaces the brake lines with braided stainless steel lines and resealed the front forks. The carburator air box was resealed and the fuel pressure regulator was replaced. The turbo was also replaced with a rebuilt unit. It has a new battery. The bike also has the Yamaha Turbo Boost which the raises the turbo boost from 7 to 12 psi.
The bike starts easily, idles smoothly and runs as it should. At about 5-6000 rpm the turbo comes on the bike takes off. It is a blast to drive, smooth, fast and very agile.
The bike is in excellent condition for it's age. I would say it is well above average cosmetically, with just a few paints scratches and nicks. There are no dents or digs and the mufflers are dent free.
There are many sights where you can learn all about these great bikes. One I like is Vince's Seca Turbo page. It was a big help in the restoration and continuing maintenance of this rare bike.
Buyer is responsible for pick-up and shipping. I will assist and can store the bike inside for a reasonable amount of time.

Day 7 Dakar 2014: Barreda Wins Another
Mon, 13 Jan 2014After a day of rest, Sunday’s stage seven was characterized by rain during the night and a new Dakar country – Bolivia. After an early start at 4:30 in the morning, the first 62 miles of the special stage into Bolivia had to be shortened due to rain and poor visibility, low-hanging clouds that prevented the helicopters from taking off creating security issues. The route led across the Andes and towards the Bolivian border.
Colin Edwards Puts Yamaha Extended Service Agents Through Boot Camp [Video]
Tue, 05 Jul 2011We love Colin Edwards. Okay, not like that kind of love, but more the “I want to go on a Man-cation with him” kind of way. The man is flat out funny, a guarantee Grade A quote at press conferences and, as he showed in his unexpected podium finish at this year’s British Grand Prix at Silverstone, he’s still fast.
