Yamaha Other description

2004 Yamaha 250f , What I have is a very clean 2004 YZ250F. I'm very sad to see it go but after a recent transplant surgery I will not be able to enjoy riding it anymore. Looking for a good home like the one it has now. This bike is well taken care of, Mechanic owned and all major repairs done through a reliable off-road race shop. I've put a lot of time and cash in this bike the past year preparing this bike for another riding season. I have put well over $2000 Into this bike. That being said explains my price. I am pretty firm on the pricing aspect.. According to Kelly Blue Books this bike is worth $1900 in good condition. Here is what I have put into this bike..-rebuilt top end including (brand new piston and steal valves) if you know anything about bikes steal valves can be ridden very hard on and take a beating without being bent.- While top end was opened up everything else was checked and cleaned with new fluids, ect.-the shocks were recently done and gone through by shock therapy- I've put brand new black plastics on it- brand new FLY graphics kit (both graphics and plastics never been ridden with)- brand new red/ grey grips- new BBR aluminum kick starter makes it an ease to fire up.- New throttle cable- new rear sprocket (sorry my memory is fading on this one. I know I have a new one but not sure if it's on there )All that being said I put well over 2000 into it practically a brand new ready to ride bike.Great running motorcycle for a deserving owner, I've only got 2 or 3 short day rides on the new top end. This bike easily keeps up with most 450s. A little more specs about this bike.- ASV levers- black carbon fiber chain, engine guard.- red aluminum iodized renthal bars- upgraded gas capA ton to see on this bike. Cash in hand for a test ride. Other than that I'll be happy to fire it up for you and possibly run it down the street if the circumstances are right. This bike runs on premium gas (91) only every fee rides i add fuel additives to keep the parts running and carb clean. Always clean the air filter every few rides.Again test rides are with cash in hand. Please no low ballers. I'm honestly just trying to get a little cash back of what I put into it. You're getting a smokin deal with this bike. Call or text more pictures if you ask. 3000 OBO 7!4.4OO.fives7!O don't miss out! Perfect for the riding season $3,000.00

Kevin Ash, one year on

Wed, 08 Jan 2014

I’ve lost dozens of friends in bike racing over the years, and while each death was a shock and incredibly sad, I’ve always had some kind of internal coping mechanism that allowed me to carry on relatively unaffected.  Maybe it’s because I was always extremely passionate and committed when taking part in my dangerous sport so was also prepared to pay the ultimate price should things go wrong.  Rightly or wrongly I’ve taken comfort from the fact that these unfortunate racers have checked out while doing something they love.   I’ve also lost a few journalist friends in bike accidents over the years but for some reason these have hit me harder.  The worst and possibly as it is the most recent is Kevin Ash who was killed last January while on a BMW launch in South Africa.  Starting in 2001, over a period of ten years, I was in Kevin’s company on countless new bike launches in pretty much every corner of the world.  At times he was cocky and occasionally irritating but always entertaining with a wicked sense of humour.  He was many things but no one can deny he was a brilliant journalist and his technical knowledge was second to none.  I always appreciated his complete enthusiasm to all things biking as he would ride through any weather on a daily basis to jobs or airports and seemed to always be tinkering with winter projects (mainly Ducatis) at home.  I also admired how much work he got through as he had columns in more than one weekly publication plus all his launch and web work. He was a competent safe rider who was certainly quick enough to evaluate any new bike thrown his way.  Kevin also drove a Porsche but then none of us are perfect!   I looked to Kevin as a wise Owl so not long after I started working with TWO/ Visordown, I asked him on an R1 launch in Australia he thought the motorcycle industry was currently in a good place.  His reply was, ‘we’ve just been flown here business class, been taken by speed boat to our five star hotel under Sydney Harbour Bridge, Yamaha have wined and dined us and furnished us with expensive gifts each day, what do you think Niall?  How times have changed.  On the subject on air travel he once told me, ‘when travelling business or first class it’s not about the pampering, comfy beds or fine dining, the important part is looking smug as you walk straight past all the people lining up at the cattle class check in! On more than one occasion I had food or drink spurt out when Kevin would deliver unexpected one line funnies at the dinner table.
