Yamaha Virago description

2007 YAMAHA VIRAGO 250, *** TERRIFIC AS A STARTER BIKE, AN AROUND TOWN RUNNER, OR EVEN AS A SECOND RIDE ***

Plenty of "kick-butt" power in this feature-packed lightweight cruiser!  It has great balance due to a low riding position.  Handles well with easy maneuverability in tight spaces.  The Virago is smaller sized but you would only know this up close. From a short distance away, it is easily mistaken for a Harley due to big bike cruiser looks with raked front end and plenty of chrome.  

I bought this to use for a few months while working in NY and it proved to be a great fill-in until I could get back to my larger cruiser.  Honestly, I'm very tempted to keep it but a full garage forces a sell.  In the last several months, I've gone over the bike making sure all is well fixing any worn wiring and controls.  I've added about $360 in leatherworks to it with brand new windshield bag, studded large saddle bags with quick close Velcro tops, and a large duffle style sissy bag.  The leatherworks really serve to complete "the look" of this compact but mighty ride.

Rossi’s Ranch: Valentino’s Personal Playground

Tue, 23 Jul 2013

What 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.

Michael Alan Duff/Michelle Ann Duff

Wed, 29 Dec 2010

Spotted the link to this short film on a Dutch blog. It's beautifully shot/directed and captures GP rider Mike Duff's recovery from a horrific hip and pelvis injury suffered at the Japanese GP which cost him a six month stay in hospital. Watching him push-start makes you wince just imagining the pain he must have been in.
