Yamaha V Max description

***UPDATE***

I know how it is buying a vehicle on eBay sight unseen,  I got burned on a Jeep I picked up in Ohio years ago.  I do intend on added more photos so you can better evaluate the bike,  I have not been home to really detail it the way I would like, that is the reason for the delay.   I did however upload a video I took of the bike a few days ago so you can hear it run and maybe get a better look at it.

The VIDEO link should be:

if that is not working search sky-onproductions 1995 v max for sale and it should come up "the sounds of the v max" is in the title

As Paul Harvey would say  now the rest of the story...

My son bought this bike in the spring from the master mechanic mentioned below, knowing that there was a possible issue with a valve and one of the carbs was messed up.  The price was in his low budget and the repairs were estimated to be around $1200.  Long story short... the bike was in the shop for 3 months, my son's job took him out of state.  He left before the bike was done, I bought it from him for what he put in it, and I paid for the repair which turned out to be $1400 more than the original quote.  At the time I was going to pay a portion of the bill as I had them replace items that could have been rebuilt (hence the clutch and brake cylinders), after all it was for my son's safety.  I am too intimidated/maybe getting too old to ride, although the V-Max was on my list of wants thru the years I have to let it go...

This Vmax was purchased from a master mechanic (that probably put at least $2000 in it last year, I have his contact info and can pass it along), and it just had $2600 (with receipt) worth of work completed by the two of the best mechanics in the area. Nothing was overlooked and no corners were cut.

Yamaha Champions Riding School Sold Out June 9 & 10

Tue, 03 Jun 2014

It took more than a year for the Yamaha Champions Riding School to sell out at its former location of Miller Motorsports Park in Tooele, Utah. Since its return at New Jersey Motorsports Park, the school has sold out in less than a half of season. There are any number of reasons this could be the case.

Catalina Island (California) Grand Prix Slated for 2010 Return [video]

Wed, 26 May 2010

The Catalina Grand Prix was last run in 1958 on Santa Catalina Island, an island community situated approximately 22 miles south-southwest of greater Los Angeles. Efforts by the AMA, AMA District 37, Big6 (a smaller collection of clubs within the D-37 region) and promotional company My Cuz Vinnie Promotions LLC, have secured December 3-5, 2010 as dates for the event, with a 100-mile professional race held on the 5th. In 2008 vintage motorcycles were displayed on Crescent Ave.

R1 noise, bike porn and a quick lap

Tue, 24 Apr 2012

Trawling the internet for a sound clip of the Crossplane Crank Yamaha R1 on full chatter, I came across this: a few fast laps on board with New Zealand Superbike racer Tony Rees as he works the CABS Throttle Blipper on his 2011 R1. (Skip to 7:35 for the fast ones.) CABS is a system used by Superbike teams that makes use of the R1’s digitally controlled throttle. When you change up a gear, the bike blips in the perfect amount of revs to save time on track and make downshifts as quick and easy as clutch-less upshifts.
