Yamaha XT description

Up for sale is my trusty xt 225.   I live in Wisconsin so I never ride it.  Its either winter, raining, or no time.  So it has a whooping 4500 miles on it over 20 years of life.  I bought it in 2011 and ride it about 200 miles a year, so time to sell it. 

I dropped it once in my garage and dented the tank.  Then I had it in the back of my truck and dropped it and bent the bars.  Then last fall, I was goofing off on some sand on the road and laid it down dented the left side further as seen in photos.  The left mirror came off in the back of the truck when I dropped it in the bed of my flatbed.  So, its a little beat up but not from hammering it on the trails.  

Anyhow, it has a new back tire, new luggage rack and runs like a top.  But, it has been 3 years since the carb has been worked on so it needs some adjustment as it leaks out the overflow of the carb when the tank is full and the bike is parked if the fuel cock is not turned off. 

$1500 is firm and it ships from 54601.   email me through ebay if you need to talk to me. I take ebaying seriously and prefer paypal.   Thanks for looking and good luck

Lorenzo And Rossi Unveil Yamaha MotoGP 2014 Livery

Fri, 17 Jan 2014

Yamaha’s official MotoGP outfit unveiled the team’s official 2014 livery in front of a packed audience in Jakarta, Indonesia. The team’s two factory riders, Jorge Lorenzo and Valentino Rossi, were on hand to proudly showcase their YZF-M1 motorcycles. As expected, blue, Yamaha’s factory color, plays a major role in the color scheme, but unlike last year where it was the dominant color, it is equally offset by contrasting white swaths on the upper fairing, fuel tank, and throughout the lower fairing.
