Yamaha XS description

 As minty as you will find !!! Only 424 ACTUAL MILES !! I have put 298 on it since last March when I got it. I just don't have room for it anymore, too many toys...... This bike is all original except for the luggage rack ( I have the original grab handle ), tires, battery, and oil. It has been serviced whether it needed it or not. Has new battery also. Has tool kit & manual. Condition wise, excellent !! Only cosmetic issues are rubber burn on the pipe from my sneaker, one sprung side cover hold down, and very minor surface rust on leading edge of mirror stalks and just over label on rear fender ( a little steel wool & polish should take care of it ). This bike is as it shows - it has not been waxed for pictures - just lightly dusted off. It is a true classic beauty. Bike is located in Ormond by the Sea Florida, just north of Daytona Beach. Possible trades considered for certain military weapons. Questions, call me at 702-416-4800.

California Superbike School 2-day Camp at Silverstone

Mon, 24 May 2010

California Superbike School will be running a 2-day camp at Silverstone for the first time in the UK this August, offering riders a chance to enjoy extra track time while improving their skills in the art of cornering. Taking place on the all-new South circuit (1.9 miles long with 12 turns) students can ride their own bike or hire a fully prepared 2010 Yamaha R6 with the latest Dunlop Sportsmart tyres and fuel included. Already hugely popular with students returning year after year, previously the 2-day camps have been held in Spain during the spring.

Back in the day, the All Japan 500cc Championship at Tsukuba

Fri, 24 Jun 2011

This ‘you tube’ gem sent to me recently brought back some funny memories from the scary but incredibly exciting days of 500cc two stroke racing. This particular race was the final round of the All Japan 500cc Championship at Tsukuba Circuit where I enjoyed a head to head battle with national hero Tadahiko Taira. Yamaha’s favourite son at the time, ‘tie wrap’ as we liked to call him, was taller and better looking than most Japanese riders (maybe a war baby?) and went on to win nearly everything in Japan during his career.

New MotoGP Rules for ECU and Factory Status for 2014

Fri, 26 Jul 2013

The Grand Prix Commission released new rules for the 2014 MotoGP season regarding the standard electronic control unit and what constitutes “factory status” for manufacturers. Starting in 2014, the official MotoGP ECU including internal datalogger from Magneti Marelli will become mandatory. Factory teams will be allowed to program their own ECU software while privateers will be required to run the standard software.
