Yamaha XS description

Here is another in a long line of restorations we have completed.  Each year we build and restore several XS1100s in various years and models.  We restore customer owned and our own collection.  This is our most recent Special for someone to own and enjoy.  Those who have owned one know just exactly what this bike is.  Those who have not, would be in for a pleasant surprise.  This is a frame up total restoration.  Although we restore all makes and models of vintage bikes, the XS1100 is our speciality.  This is the first of several XS1100s we will be listing in the upcoming weeks.  We build these bikes for people to not just look at, but to ride.  We would like to make you one of our valued customers as we stand behind the bikes we sell.  Below is a list of items performed in restoration.

And it's goodbye from him

Tue, 17 Aug 2010

THIS IS Valentino Rossi's farewell letter to his Fiat Yamaha team following the announcement the flambouyant Italian is to head to Ducati MotoGP in 2011.The hand-written letter, mistakes and all, is written in almost a 'my first romance' kinda way. It's touching, if a little bizarre. Some of the letter reads:“Unfortunately even the most beautiful love stories finish, but they leave a lot of wonderful memories, like when my M1 and I kissed for the first time on the grass at Welkom, when she looked straight in my eyes and told me ‘I love you!'"Somehow, we can't see Casey Stoner gushing quite as freely when he leaves Ducati for Repsol Honda.

Jorge Lorenzo Gets His Motorcycle License

Thu, 08 Mar 2012

2010 MotoGP Champion Jorge Lorenzo has earned his A2 Spanish motorcycle license. Last month, we learned Lorenzo was practicing for the test on a Yamaha YB250R motorcycle, and now the Yamaha factory racer has completed the practical portion of the test. Here he is pictured with his riding teacher Xavi Vallejo (and wouldn’t it be cool to tell people you taught a MotoGP World Champion how to ride a motorcycle?).
