Yamaha YZ description

2005 YAMAHA YZ85, Great fun for not a lot of money. This older YZ85 looks and runs good for an 8 year old 2 stroker.Play For KeepsWelcome to the jungle. It's not easy making the transition to adulthood, but at least things can be crystal clear in one area of life.When you ask the YZ85's reed-valve-inducted six-speed engine for power, you learn very quickly the difference between it and whatever you rode before. This liquid-cooled six-speed screamer inhales through a 28mm Keihin PWK flat-slide carburetor and the heavy-duty clutch produces hard launches and positive shifts.And when you begin exploring the capabilities of its adjustable, long-travel suspension, you'll start to comprehend how your Supercross heroes pull off those poster moves. The inverted Kayaba fork dishes out 10.8 travel and you've got 11.3 out back.This is the real YZ deal, and if you're lucky it might teach you that the best things in life don't come easy. Excellence requires dedication, many hours, and a few thousand other intangibles.If you're ready to go there, we're ready with the 85 that can take you to the front of the pack, whether the game is motocross or life.

Fri, 15 May 2009

Named after a man by the name of Zebulon Pike, an explorer who led an expedition to the area in 1806, Pikes Peak is home to the second oldest motorsports race in America second only to the Indianapolis 500. First completed in 1916, this year marks the 87th running of the “Race to the Clouds.” If the math doesn’t add up, this is because there were several years that the event did not run over the course of its 93 year history.
