Yamaha Other description
Up for auction is my 1993 Yamaha TZ250.
The bike has had a frame off clean-up/restoration and complete motor rebuild - no expense spared.
It is very nice looking up close, VERY fast and completely reliable.
I have a fair amount of spare parts (listed at bottom of page)
Many many parts were replaced during the restoration (all with Yamaha factory OEM parts - except where noted), including but not limited to:
- Wheel bearings and seals
- Rebuilt forks
- All engine bearings and oil seals
- Clutch plates
- All suspension linkage dampers
- Swingarm pivot bearings and seals
- Rebuilt brake calipers front and rear
- Anything made of rubber was replaced
- New dashboard foam
- Completely rebuilt carburetors, with new needle & seat, jets and floats
- New reeds
- Added Gull Thermostat System
- Progressive Rate spring on rear shock
- Powder coated frame, swingarm, wheels and other miscellaneous parts.
- Rhino-horn front fender (aerodynamics)
- Rebuilt, trued and balanced crankshaft/rods
- Aftermarket transmission shift detent for smoother shifting
- Ferodo carbon ceramic brake pads
- Galfer steel braided brake lines front and rear
- Many many new OEM bolts and fasteners
- Woodcraft Clip on handlebars (replaceable handles)
- New chain and sprockets
- Ohlins Steering Damper
- Sharkskinz bodywork (1994 style front fairing with intake vents and later model sloped tail section)
- Zero Gravity Windscreen
- Vinyl number plates (white base and yellow top). Yellow top can be removed to expose white number plate base.
- Factory rear stand - powder coated (has scratches from use)
The above list is off the top of my head - I'm sure there is more, and I may amend the listing to reflect additional things that were done as they come to mind...
The bike has has 4 track days on it (no races) since completion. I had one low speed, low side on the right hand side (scratched up right side fairing, bar end, right footpeg and right expansion chamber, nothing mechanical harmed, just cosmetic. The tank has scratches from my leathers, and a decently sized shallow dent in the rear top of tank that I believe can be popped out (shown in photos)
The crankshaft rod deflection is still well with in spec. The cylinders are immaculate, crankcases in excellent condition. The top end has 1 track day on it.
I'm not sure how many miles are on it since the restoration, I did 4 track days at Miller Motorsports park...so I am estimating 400 miles.
I am selling for two reasons: (#1) I am too big of a guy for this bike (#2) Financial reasons...
The Bike was last taken to the track in 2008, since then it has sat in a place of honor in my living room being displayed (stored indoors - climate controlled, without fuel or cooling system filled)
It does need new tires and there is NO title on a bike like this. Bill of sale provided.

- Service Manual and parts fische

Filling a void with an RD350LC
Mon, 29 Jul 2013Last winter I managed to fill a void in my life when I stumbled on a very reasonably priced Yamaha RD350LC. It was a tad scruffy, had the wrong exhausts but most importantly it was blue and white with all numbers matching. I had the usual euphoria when the deal was done but I underestimated how much pleasure this particular purchase would continue to deliver another eight months down the line. The difference with this old bike is, instead of just taking it for the occasional ride I was talked into doing a full nut and bolt restoration. Having never taking a bike apart completely before, initially it was quite daunting but I soon found the RD is easy to work on so it turned into a truly satisfying experience. I’ve had some help from LC enthusiasts with the rebuild, however, the stripping, sourcing and organising was a total labour of love. And call me sad but it has made me bond with this bike like no other which only adds to the feel good factor. The bike cost £1800 and I’ve spent around £1000 but I reckon my mint Elsie is now worth a fair bit more. I fancy rejuvenating a Fizzy next time but there’s lots of other cheap 70’s and 80’s winter projects out there so why not have a go yourself?
The Yamaha FZ-09 Really Can Do It All – Video
Fri, 14 Feb 2014Around here, it’s no secret we’re fans of the Yamaha FZ-09 (MT-09 for those reading this outside the U.S.). It’s a great do-it-all motorcycle, and for $7990 it’s a great value, too. Apparently, Mark Toia is well aware of how useful the FZ-09 can be as well.
Rossi’s Ranch: Valentino’s Personal Playground
Tue, 23 Jul 2013What does Valentino Rossi do when he’s not riding his Yamaha M1 around the best racetracks in the world? He relaxes at home in Tavullia, Italy, and rides motorcycles around his newly developed dirt track dubbed, “Rossi’s Ranch.” “It’s like a dream from when you’re a child,” says Rossi. “You hope at one moment you can buy your own racetrack.” It’s safe to say Rossi is financially stable enough at this moment in time to where he can make his childhood dream a reality.
