Yamaha Other description

I have this ORIGINAL 1982 Yamaha IT175 for sale. It has not been molested and even has the original tool kit with it. It has been from California to Tennessee that I know of.  It was sold at an auction in TN then sold to a family member. I purchased it from him nearly three years ago. Since I have owned it I have raced it in a couple of Cross Country Vintage Class races. It runs great but it can be a typical 2-stroke at times and will need to be kicked more than once. This bike mostly sits in my garage where I can admire it. I have since purchased a couple of other vintage bikes that need my attention more so this one has to go. The bike is a good 6-8 out of 10 for it's age.
List of things the old bike needs or is not original:
1. Fork seals-  I do have seal savers on it but the seals need replaced
2. Dent in the pipe-  Did that myself when I fell against a tree on a trail
3. One of the decals on the tank is not original
4. Has Renthal bars
5. I did cut the dog bone down a little on the rear suspension linkage to lower it a bit for a shorter rider...done well and professionally
6. Tires are old

I will not ship this bike so it is available for local pick-up only.  PayPal only for deposit.  Please see pics and ask any questions that you might have. Otherwise, see my feedback and bid with confidence. This bike does not have a title however, that wasn't an option for the drop box above.  It is OFF-ROAD only.

Motorcycle Live and a few of my favourite things for 2013

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

There 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.        

Yamaha Files Suit Over Scooter Design

Thu, 05 Apr 2012

Yamaha has filed a lawsuit against a pair of Japanese companies alleging their electric scooter copies the design of the Yamaha Gear BX50 scooter. The Yamaha Gear  BX50 (pictured left above) is a 50cc four-stroke scooter sold in Japan as a commercial-use model, aimed for small business such as newspaper distributors. Yamaha has been offering the BX50 (and the BX50N variant) since 2007, selling 39,917 units as of December 2011.
