Yamaha SR500 description

Up for sale is my near mint 1978 Yamaha SR500. I've absolutely loved owning and riding this bike, however I'm moving to the mountains in Utah and it won't get the attention it deserves. 

It has always been garaged and has less than 16,000 miles on it (I have put 1,500 miles on it since I purchased it 2 years ago) and has less than 20 miles since its last service.

Here is a video of a walk around: https://youtu.be/oFYYhUo6o3U

The title is clear, the registration is paid through April 2017 and it comes with the custom vanity plate "SEVNT8". 

I have never had any issues with it and everything runs absolutely great. I just installed a brand new Seat and super bright LED taillight and it comes with the old fender and light (picture included) as well as 2 extra rear fenders. I'm happy to show it to locals or upload any additional pics or videos upon request. 

Note: There are no turn signals or horn installed, however the wiring is there. 

Happy Bidding!

How To Rebuild a Yamaha R6 In Under A Minute + Video

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

If you’re new to the road racing scene, you might have heard the terms “Factory” and “Privateer.” For the casual observer, you’ll notice the difference between the two ultimately comes down to money and support, as one is likely working out of the back of their van while the other is supported by an 18-wheeler. This video, shot by the Y.E.S./Monster Energy/Graves/Yamaha team makes the line between the two sides clear as day. Watch as the Yamaha crew rebuilds Garrett Gerloff’s R6 from the frame up after a nasty crash with enough time to make the race.

Yamaha R25 250cc Sportbike Prototype Revealed – Video

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

After much anticipation, Yamaha has revealed its new R25 250cc sportbike at the 43rd annual Tokyo Motor Show in Japan. The manufacturer has long offered a 125cc model in India, and that’s where word surfaced of an impending 250cc model. We will have to wait a bit longer however, as the R25 at the Tokyo Motor Show is still just a prototype, meaning we should expect to see the production model for 2015.
