1978 Yamaha YZ250E

6 Speed

selling my race bike,
Had some real good rides on this one
Let a kid race it for his first time on a 2-stroke
at Glen Helen, 40 riders and this kid got his first First Place Finish EVER
!

I'm old and have won my share on this bike.


 A little about this bike. Always Garaged.
It's a 2 stroke, so you have to pre-mix oil with the gas.


 I combined 3 YZ's that I had to build this one.
I had a old stadium bike that ran great, and the frame was trash.

Ported and polished, took the 6 speed motor and placed it in another frame,


 Added a White Brothers shock, installed 1980 forks &polished the forks,

put on cammo seat cover,
added weld on foot pegs, answer silencer, new hand controls,

new kill button, older Renthal bars,

recently changed out the oil in the trans and forks,

tires in good shape, I would say 75% on them
used round wheels from another bike,

and went racing.
This bike has never failed me, I put on some 82
graphics just to be different.


 I've had this bike for over 17 years

There is no title, (it's so old) but I will furnish a Bill of Sale

I still race vintage Motocross, even though I am getting up in the years,

I have CZ's, Bultaco's, Husqvarnas , and a bunch of 70's YZ's

Ask any questions that you need answered,

the reserve is a reasonably fare price,

not astronomical like some of the bikes I have looked at


 Located just 50 miles

NE of Los Angeles, Ca.

Rumor Mill: Yamaha To Make R400 and R650

Thu, 25 Jul 2013

Yamaha is set to put into production two new sporty bikes — the R400 and R650 —  according to “Young Machine” a Japanese motorcycle magazine. If true, this would fill a huge void in the manufacturer’s beginner sportbike bike lineup. It would make sense, considering the success of Suzuki’s SV650 (which later morphed into the Gladius and is now the SFV650), Kawasaki’s Ninja 650 (ER-6 in other markets), and even Honda’s CBR500R.
