Yamaha V Star description

I'm selling this 2001 Yamaha VStar 650CC. Clean title and registration is paid till July of 2017. It has only 15360 miles as of today but I still ride it around so it may be a little more once it sells. I've only had this bike for a few months but it rides pretty nice. It has a Vance & Hines 2 in 2 aftermarket pipe that is throaty and mean. For a 650, it sounds like a beast! If you know about these cruisers then you know how awesome they are. I've taken it up the coast to Santa Barbara and back with no problems and the Mustang aftermarket seat makes for a comfortable ride. There are some blemishes and dings on it but nothing terrible for a 15year old bike. This is a great bike for beginners, it has an easy clutch and very low seat height. I have a helmet I'm throwing in and the cloth saddle bags that are in the pictures. I've fixed a few things since I've got it but my buddy just sold me his bike and I have to get rid of this one. I'm letting it go for cheap so hit me up with some respectable offers. No trades or low balls please. If you want to test ride have cash on hand. You crash it you bought it.  I am also listing this locally so auction may end early.


If you send me a message I can send you a video of it starting up cold in the morning.

Anti clockwise Knockhill and riding in the North East with GP winners.

Wed, 06 Jun 2012

I was both nervous and excited for my first ever reverse direction track day last week at Knockhill. From rushing downhill into the left hand off camber hairpin to sweeping up onto the start/finish, nothing bears any resemblance to riding round clockwise. I actually raced my 350LC in the opposite direction in 1982 but it still took a few laps to get my head round what essentially is a brand new track for Scotland.

New: Venhill 888 fast-action twistgrips

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

CONTROL specialist Venhill has launched its new 888 range of bike-specific fast action twistgrips.  Supplied complete with the company's top of the range Featherlight cables, the kits are designed for a straightforward replacement of the factory-fitted equipment.  Bike-specific kits are now available for the Honda CBR600F, Kawasaki ZX-6R/ZX-10R, Suzuki GSX-R600/750, Triumph 675 Daytona and Yamaha R1/R6, among others, with prices from £105. Here's Venhill's description of the new product: "Manufactured with a robust CNC machined alloy body, the 888 fast action twistgrip provides a choice of two settings and is supplied with two rotors so that riders can select the throttle action that best suits the riding conditions.  Settings can be changed swiftly by undoing the two set screws securing the throttle body and changing the rotor. On the fastest setting there is 80° of rotation, (taking up 36mm of the cable), which is typically 45% faster than 'standard' throttles.

Stoner explains the tank slapper

Mon, 03 Oct 2011

Casey Stoner looked all set to win at Motegi, after translating his pole position into an early race-lead. But coming over the crest on the back straight his bike momentarily lost control in a tank slapper. Regaining composure the championship leader was forced to pump his brakes to get the pads back in place, with the rear-wheel bouncing in the air he ran out of time and space to make the 90 degree right hander and was forced to run into the gravel.
