Yamaha xs650 description
This is my daily rider. Really fun bike. I've put around 2k miles on it since it was customised so all the kinks are ironed out. Ready to be ridden away. The main selling point is the rephased engine. Crank and cam were rephased by Hugh's Handbuilt and professionally installed. I have another set not rephased which you're welcome to make an offer on. Makes the bike a lot smoother. No more rattling teeth. Sits quietly at 80mph so it eats up the highway miles. Also has a Pamco electronic ignition. The 277° Pamco one with all the bells and whistles off of mikesxs. I also have an xs1100 right disc rotor. It's in great condition and new pads. Make me an offer on that too if you want.
New gauges New lines xs750 tank Uni pod filters Rejetted carbs Hydraulic clutch (no shifting problems here) Custom seat Clubman bars (comes with tracker bars too) Bendix repaired (so it starts on the button) Plenty of tread on the tires New battery New rotor and brushes You're welcome to come ride it if I have $5k cash in my hand when you do. I'm in Silver Lake. Winning bidder must contact me within 24 hours and have the bike paid for and collected within 4 days of auction end.

Master Of Torque: Motorcycle Anime By Yamaha Final Installment
Thu, 12 Jun 2014If you’re into motorcycles, big, puppy dog eyes, dramatic Japanese dialogue with English subtitles, and subliminal Yamaha references then check out Master of Torque, Yamaha’s original anime series. The final installment in the three-part series is set to release tomorrow. Set in Tokyo, Japan in the year 2017, three years before the city’s hosting of the 2020 Olympic Games, the show focuses on the exploits of three young motorcyclists and highlights Yamaha’s FZ-09 and FZ-07.
Video: Barry Sheene's 500 stroker on the Visordown stage
Mon, 30 Nov 2009We've got a real treat for you on the Visordown stage at the NEC Bike Show. It's the ridiculously gorgeous Akai Yamaha, ridden by Barry Sheene and now owned by Chris Wilson. Niall Mackenzie and Jamie Whitham fire it up 3 times a day, just before one of our feature shows.
Motorcycle Live and a few of my favourite things for 2013
Tue, 27 Nov 2012There is lots of shiny new metal on show at Motorcyclelive this year but for me it’s the new Triumph Daytona 675 that steals the show. We’ve been starved of brand new models in the Supersports segment for years but for me the latest Trumpet has made the wait worthwhile. And if its performance matches its looks then I reckon the 2013 bike of the year is a foregone conclusion. The sleek curvy nose contrasts perfectly with the more pointy angular rear end and new side mounted silencer. It is lighter, more powerful and revs harder with much work on on mass centralisation to further improve handling. Few of us have a whole lot of spare cash these days but £8899 for the standard model seems a fair price for such an awesome bike. That said I’d have to consider selling the granny and granddad to find the extra £1700 for the 675R. Available early next year, and surely the perfect all round track day tool, this beauty comes with upgraded suspension, brakes, ABS, a quickshifter and some nice carbon detailing. The white 675R on display at the show looked even better in the flesh than previous images I’d seen so be careful or you might find yourself handing over a deposit. With no money left from the Triumph stand you’ll need your six special numbers to come up for my second favourite show item the AGV Pista GP Project 46. Although road legal this extremely light, full carbon helmet is designed especially for racing with a huge field of vision, extensive ventilation and superb ergonomics. It also comes with earplugs which suggests there may be some compromise in the noise department but it is still an incredible piece of engineering. At £799, this special Pista is also an incredible price but there will only be one hundred available and Raceways Yamaha reckon they are going fast.
