Yamaha YZF-R description

Thanks for looking at this posting.
I have a very rough looking 2005 Yamaha R1 that I picked up from a friend before he deployed.
For looks, this bike is very rough. I will be up front and honest about the shape and condition. Please ask for any clarification. Contact me directly at justinjlopez86@gmail.com

But it has a great foundation. It is a strong engine on a good frame with good tires, etc. This bike would be BEST suited for a practice track bike. NOT to impress your friends with its looks.
There are a few issues that need to be worked, but can be done so very easily. The fuel tank has two pinhole leaks that just developed within the month as I was trying to clean the tank. And the fuel pump needs to be cleaned/replaced. The bike runs, but the fuel storage and delivery will keep you from optimum performance. Also, the chain is rusty and needs to be oiled.

It's a great bike, but I don't have the time to work on it. I've priced all used parts on eBay that I'd buy to replace them (fuel tank= 130, fuel pump= 80, and new fairings= 270). I think with a little love and elbow grease, a person could have a great bike to ride.

Finally, my friend (deployed), couldn't hand over the title to me before he left. Long story short, he dropped the bike off at my house but forgot to bring the paperwork with it. We remain in contact, but it's difficult with him out of the country for a year. He is currently working to ship me the title now, which is in his possession, but the process is slow due to his current location and assignment. The bike was last registered at Fort Bragg, NC, but I'm stationed with the bike here at Fort Sill, OK. So applying for a lost title is difficult for me as well.
So this is a problem you would have to tackle if you want it for a road bike, and bear with us as we work through the administrative process. You will get the title, and we can arrange a deal to ensure you receive it.

Thanks again, and please feel free to ask for any more info! I have pics and video of it running.
Please contact me directly at justinjlopez86@gmail.com and I'll send you pics and video.

Thu, 20 Jan 2011

Occasionally, some seriously trick bikes with a decent pedigree come up for sale on eBay. Here's the first in a small series of bikes that we've dug up for sale on eBay now. Queston is, which one would make the ultimate track bike?

Yamaha Motor Co. announced Monday that it is cutting the ringers from its company rugby team. The Yamaha Jubilo rugby club competes in the Top League, the highest level Japanese Rugby Football Union pro league.  The team currently sits fifth out of 14 teams with a 3-2-2 record with a roster of 17 professional players including nine non-Japanese imports.

R1 noise, bike porn and a quick lap

Tue, 24 Apr 2012

Trawling the internet for a sound clip of the Crossplane Crank Yamaha R1 on full chatter, I came across this: a few fast laps on board with New Zealand Superbike racer Tony Rees as he works the CABS Throttle Blipper on his 2011 R1. (Skip to 7:35 for the fast ones.) CABS is a system used by Superbike teams that makes use of the R1’s digitally controlled throttle. When you change up a gear, the bike blips in the perfect amount of revs to save time on track and make downshifts as quick and easy as clutch-less upshifts.
