1976 Yamaha YZ125C
This dirt bike was a practice bike for a retired local Texas MX racer. Being so, it had very low hours. The piston is still in its original bore with excellent compression. The bike he tore apart and raced was 76 YZ125X which I also acquired and is under restoration. Anything on the bike that needed to be replaced was. What was in acceptable condition was kept original. Here is a short list of new purchased items: NOS tank-ORIGINAL PAINT a few small scratches but no dents. NOS seat cover NOS clutch discs Rebuilt suspension Frame/Swingarm/Exhaust/Muffler/Skid Plate/Small parts were sandblasted and painted. Exhaust has a ceramic coat paint. Yamaha Spec Bolts CDI was cleaned and checked. K&N Air Filter Plastics are original Rims/Spokes/Hubs are original unpainted. Rims still have DID stickers on them. Front Yamaha handlebar logo. There are 3 months and a considerable amount of money invested in this beautiful piece of art. The new owner is sure to love it. Would make an excellent gift for you or someone you want to make happy. Starts on the first kick. If you are a serious buyer, stay tuned for a video of it running. I'll add it here in the description. Any other question, feel free to ask! PAYMENT: $800 deposit within 24 hours of auction end. Remaining balance can be payed via Paypal/Bank Transfer/Cash within 3 days of auction end date. SHIPPING: Free Shipping to any major city in Texas. Out of state buyers need to arrange pickup. I am more than happy to work with the company of your choice. International Shipping can be arranged but need to add $450 for crating in addition to shipping cost. |

Kevin Ash, one year on
Wed, 08 Jan 2014I’ve lost dozens of friends in bike racing over the years, and while each death was a shock and incredibly sad, I’ve always had some kind of internal coping mechanism that allowed me to carry on relatively unaffected. Maybe it’s because I was always extremely passionate and committed when taking part in my dangerous sport so was also prepared to pay the ultimate price should things go wrong. Rightly or wrongly I’ve taken comfort from the fact that these unfortunate racers have checked out while doing something they love. I’ve also lost a few journalist friends in bike accidents over the years but for some reason these have hit me harder. The worst and possibly as it is the most recent is Kevin Ash who was killed last January while on a BMW launch in South Africa. Starting in 2001, over a period of ten years, I was in Kevin’s company on countless new bike launches in pretty much every corner of the world. At times he was cocky and occasionally irritating but always entertaining with a wicked sense of humour. He was many things but no one can deny he was a brilliant journalist and his technical knowledge was second to none. I always appreciated his complete enthusiasm to all things biking as he would ride through any weather on a daily basis to jobs or airports and seemed to always be tinkering with winter projects (mainly Ducatis) at home. I also admired how much work he got through as he had columns in more than one weekly publication plus all his launch and web work. He was a competent safe rider who was certainly quick enough to evaluate any new bike thrown his way. Kevin also drove a Porsche but then none of us are perfect! I looked to Kevin as a wise Owl so not long after I started working with TWO/ Visordown, I asked him on an R1 launch in Australia he thought the motorcycle industry was currently in a good place. His reply was, ‘we’ve just been flown here business class, been taken by speed boat to our five star hotel under Sydney Harbour Bridge, Yamaha have wined and dined us and furnished us with expensive gifts each day, what do you think Niall? How times have changed. On the subject on air travel he once told me, ‘when travelling business or first class it’s not about the pampering, comfy beds or fine dining, the important part is looking smug as you walk straight past all the people lining up at the cattle class check in! On more than one occasion I had food or drink spurt out when Kevin would deliver unexpected one line funnies at the dinner table.

Yamaha Announces AMA Road Racing Teams For 2013
Wed, 30 Jan 2013Today, Yamaha Motor Corporation, USA, has announced its U.S. road racing teams to compete in the 2013 GEICO Motorcycle AMA Pro Racing season, which kicks off in March at the famed Daytona International Speedway. Superbike In the AMA Pro National Guard Superbike division, Yamaha is fielding “Team Josh,” as three-time and defending class champion, Josh Hayes once again teams up with Josh Herrin, the 2012 AMA Rookie of the Year. Despite setting single-season records for the most SuperBike wins, the most consecutive SuperBike wins, and the most SuperBike poles, the elder Josh hasn’t lost any of his competitive fire. During the off-season, Josh signed a two-year contract to stay with Monster Energy/Graves/Yamaha because he loves the team and he still feels that he’s got a lot of unfinished business to attend to.
