Yamaha Road Star description

2003 Yamaha Midnight Star 1600:


I purchased this bike in July 2012 from a local dealer (Southside Honda in Lafayette, LA).  Cosmetically, this bike has seen slightly better days, but it runs perfectly.  In fact, I took it out for a 220 mile ride 04/13/13 and I did not have a single issue the entire ride.  The ONL Y reason I'm selling it is because I need to buy a used car soon.

Features:
- Vance & Hines pipes
- Kuryakyn grips
- Kuryakyn highway pegs
- Passenger backrest
- Luggage rack

There are a few obvious signs of wear and tear on this bike, including a few areas of chrome that I put rust inhibitor on and a scratch in the paint where the sissybar bolts to the rear fender. If you look closely in the pic of the tank, my finger is pointing out a very slight dent.

NOTE: THIS BIKE CURRENTLY DOES NOT HAVE A BATTERY!   BUYER MUST PURCHASE A BATTERY FOR THIS BIKE TO RUN!  SINCE THIS BIKE HAS BEEN SITTING FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS, I WOULD RECOMMEND CLEANING OUT THE FUEL LINES ALSO.

IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN SEEING A SHORT VIDEO OF THE BIKE RUNNING FROM APRIL 2013, SEND ME A MESSAGE THROUGH EBAY.

NON-REFUNDABLE deposit of US $500.00 within 24 hours of auction close. Full payment required within 7 days of auction close.  If these agreements are not met, this auction will be relisted.

Buyer is responsible for vehicle pickup or shipping.

This bike is also for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end this auction prematurely if the bike is sold locally before this auction listing closes.

Speaking in a presentation on the company’s business operation, Yamaha Motor President Hiroyuki Yanagi reiterated the strategy of developing multiple models sharing the same engine and frame. Honda has followed a similar strategy with its NC models, seeing the platform evolve to include the CTX700 and NM4.

Motogpnews.com. A blatant but worthwhile plug

Mon, 02 Aug 2010

This story was published by our friends on motogpnews.com. It's not supposed to be serious: Fiat Yamaha application form Now you can take Rossi's space The expected departure of Vale46 ™ "Fack"© Rossi from the Fiat Yamaha team at the end of the season leaves a dwarf star sized hole in the motogp stratosphere. Popular opinion places Ben Spies firmly in the saddle of the ex-yellow liveried M1, but MGPN can exclusively revel that Yamaha big bosses are worried that Ben doesn't possess the necessary character traits to step up into the role.
