Yamaha YZF-R description
This is a 2001 Yamaha YZF600R Thundercat. I have owned this bike since 2005; was my first street motorcycle. I'm going to be completely honest and say that as of now the bike does not run. The last time this bike was ridden was summer 2011. At that time the bike ran excellent, and since then has been garage kept. After I added two Harleys to my collection I never found time to get back on this, so it has went 5 years without being started. There is no battery, the engine would need refreshed with new fluids and carbs cleaned obviously, and a new fuel line would probably be necessary. The body plastic has some cracks as I have shown in the pictures but the paint is still bright and the frame/chassis is in fantastic shape. Tires have 70% tread left. The motorcycle has only 7,431 miles on it and to be honest I need to get it out of my garage so somebody can get some use out of it. This motorcycle would be great for a first time bike or a small project bike; wouldn't take much money into this bike to make it nearly new. It does have a 520 chain conversion kit, 1 down (front sprocket) 3 up (rear sprocket). Feel free to ask any questions, no reasonable offer will be refused. Pick up locally or arrange for shipping. If price is right I would consider traveling up to 3 hours from me to meet. For sale locally, so can end any time. Thanks for looking.

The horrendous reality of restoring a 'classic'
Tue, 31 Aug 2010It was with much excitement – displaced or not – that my freshly rebuilt 1976 SR500 Yamaha fired into life at the second kick this weekend. I say second kick. It was actually the thirty second kick – thirty of those spent frothing up a heady sweat until I realised the main fuel pipe was kinked to buggery.
