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.

Scott Russell Returning To Yamaha Champions Riding School Next Week

Wed, 10 Sep 2014

This just in from the Yamaha Champions Riding School: the Champ is back! As many of you know, Scott fell off a dirtbike and tumbled around long enough to hurt himself back in July. But he just called and drawled, “I’ll be back for the school as soon as I’m able to ride…let’s fill it up and have some fun!”  With the final round of the AMA SuperBike series coming to New Jersey Motorsports Park this weekend, it’s a perfect time for Mr.

Seeley On Form On First Night Of North West 200

Fri, 16 May 2014

Alastair Seeley took a double in the Ballymoney Borough council Supersport and Pirtek Superstock events at the start of racing at the Vauxhall International North West 200 this evening, what many “real” road racers refer to as the precursor to the Isle Of Man TT. In the Supersport race, the ‘Wee Wizard’ survived being caught up in a first lap crash at York hairpin that left him languishing in 16th to come through and win the opening race of the night on his Mar-Train Yamaha R6. Lee Johnston was the rider who went down in the first lap crash, causing Seeley to take evasive action to avoid going down himself.
