Yamaha XS description

Letting go of my 1981 Yamaha XS650 Cafe Racer...

All black, runs great!! Engine and carbs professionally rebuilt by certified Yamaha service in Houston, TX less than a year ago, only ~150 miles ridden since!

-Stock tank
-Sportbike front end (rim/fork/triple tree/brakes from 2000 GSXR)
-BRAND NEW front tire (~50 miles on it), LIGHT USED rear tire (~150 miles)
-Custom seat pan and seat
-Clip-on handlebars
-All engine seals replaced about a year ago when engine was rebuilt

I'll throw in a free bike cover (2 months old)!

Ridden in the San Francisco Distinguished Gentleman's Ride and got ALOT of compliments! This bike definitely stands out as is, but is also a great opportunity to make it your own!

Sad to part with my super fun toy, and I hope it brings as a big a smile on your face as it does on mine!

Our Magnificent seven

Wed, 16 Feb 2011

Remember to dust your Union Jacks down if you happen to be visiting any Grand Prix this year as we have no less than seven youngsters to cheer on in the junior Moto GP classes. I don’t think we’ve ever had this many ‘yoofs’ in the GP paddock so let’s hope they can do the business and bring an end to our long drought of Grand Prix titles. And that could be soon as Scott Redding is already a hot favourite for the 2011 Moto 2 championship on his Marc VDS Suter machine.

The Japanese rounds were always attended by some of the top guys with experience of the 500GP and MotoGP bikes, through racing them in their domestic championships. What resulted was getting to witness the exciting and talented Japanese riders, and bring new riders to the attention of the teams.

Recall for 2011 Yamaha FJR1300

Mon, 11 Jul 2011

Yamaha is initiating a recall campaign the 2011 FJR1300, just a week after a separate recall for the 2006-2009 versions of the sport touring motorcycle. Like the earlier campaign, the recall for the 2011 Yamaha FJR1300 is for an electrical issue,  this time for the brake lights. According to documents released by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, brake light on affected units may not illuminate when the front brake lever is applied because the activating mechanism in the brake switch can bind.
