Yamaha Other description

Up for sale is a really clean 1992 Yamaha GTS1000. She is almost totally stock, with the only modifications being a Corbin seat and a MRA Touring windscreen.  This example has just over 37k miles, and is very clean.  Everything works, and runs like a top.


At the heart of this bike, you have the 1000cc Genesis 20 valve motor from the FZR.   Retuned for 100 horsepower and 78 ft. lbs. of torque, this thing pulls like a freight train from about 2k rpm, and cruises at freeway speeds at around 5k rpm.


To complete the package, the bike also has fuel injection, anti-lock brakes front and back, and a catalytic converter.  The full fairing and the MRA windscreen help keep the rider out of the wind during those long rides.


These bikes were an evolution in front suspension design. This forkless design is very similar to that on the Bimota Tesi series.

The title is clean, up to date, and in my name.  The front tire needs to be changed.  Please ask any additional questions before bidding.

Good luck!

BSB 2012; Mystic Mac investigates

Tue, 03 Jan 2012

In my opinion, the smartest move in the BSB off season has to be Michael Laverty moving from Swan Yamaha to HM Plant Honda. With a ban on electronics for 2012, and in particular traction control, WFR's Graham Gowland has already proved to Laverty how competitive an EVO spec Fireblade can be - so I’m tipping both these riders to be bang on the money at the Brands Hatch season opener in April. Unlike BMW, Kawasaki and Yamaha, Honda have deliberately developed their road-going Superbike without electronics to give a user friendly feel with good mechanical traction, so it’ll be interesting to see how the opposition copes with their high-tech trickery stripped off.

You want a nice little car, you do.

We ran a couple of stories last week - both, coincidentally, about new Kawasakis. One was the first peek of the new ZX10R – hot stuff you’d imagine – the other, the new W800 retro parallel twin. I suppose it shouldn’t have shocked us, which story was most popular in terms of hits but it really does mark a seismic shifts in British biking attitudes that the W800 story doubled the hits of the ZX10 piece.

Another Day at the Office for Yamaha MotoGP Stars – Video

Fri, 27 Jul 2012

Back in 2009, Yamaha released an entertaining video featuring MotoGP racers Valentino Rossi, Jorge Lorenzo, Colin Edwards and James Toseland working on various mundane jobs at Yamaha Motor USA headquarters. Three years later, Yamaha has released a follow-up featuring its current MotoGP lineup of Lorenzo, Ben Spies, Cal Crutchlow and Andrea Dovizioso (with King Kenny Roberts lunchbox in tow). Tech3 Yamaha racer Crutchlow takes over his predecessor Edwards’ spot as a Yamaha security guard, but throws his own British spin on the job.
