Yamaha XS description
Up for auction is my beloved XS. I have owned this bike for 18 years and the time has come to part ways. It was built to its current state last fall by me. Taken completely down to the frame, and built correctly, with an aim toward riding it a lot. I currently drive it 40 miles each way to work daily, and it's been trouble free. In 18 years, it's never left me stranded. Heres what was done: Motor taken down and gone over, New rings, timing chain, all new gaskets and seals, new sump filter, new one piece clutch pushrod, new front sprocket. Frame was completely inspected and visible ugly welds were ground and had nice weld passes laid down. Custom rear fender struts support a cut sportster rear fender.Stainless brake line. Custom Chrome master cylinder. Custom made handlebars. TC Brothers Choppers forward controls and side mount license plate with Model A LED light. Engine painted with ceramic, pipes professionally ceramic coated. Wheels powdercoated and laced with stainless spokes. Runs strong and with shorty pipes, it has quite a bark when you're ripping down the street. You will get more attention on this bike than you can imagine. Stopping for gas means someone will be checking it out every time. Kickstart only. This bike is just the basics. Raw and simple. Hidden switches for the ignition and lights. The key is used to open the gas tank and lock the forks when parked.

Yamaha U.S. Increasing Club Level Road Racing Contingency
Fri, 21 Feb 2014The state of road racing in America is hurting, there’s no doubt about that. But at least Yamaha is stepping up to the plate and increasing its contingency program for club level road racers 50% over last year. According to Yamaha, the program is designed to encompass a broad spectrum of road racing series across the U.S., from numerous club-level and regional sprint series events to the AMA Pro Road Racing series, including the addition of the ASRA Team Challenge Endurance Series.
How To Rebuild a Yamaha R6 In Under A Minute + Video
Mon, 30 Jun 2014If you’re new to the road racing scene, you might have heard the terms “Factory” and “Privateer.” For the casual observer, you’ll notice the difference between the two ultimately comes down to money and support, as one is likely working out of the back of their van while the other is supported by an 18-wheeler. This video, shot by the Y.E.S./Monster Energy/Graves/Yamaha team makes the line between the two sides clear as day. Watch as the Yamaha crew rebuilds Garrett Gerloff’s R6 from the frame up after a nasty crash with enough time to make the race.
Off-Road Riding on a Yamaha Zuma 125 [Video]
Mon, 24 Sep 2012Off-road capability isn’t the first thing people consider when shopping for a scooter but it is one of the more surprising traits of the Yamaha Zuma 125. In his review of the Zuma 125, Tom Roderick says the scooter “radiates a more adventurous attitude” than most scooters, with its knobby tires and hand guards making it capable for the odd excursion off the pavement. But if you’re still not convinced, Yamaha‘s Taiwanese arm has released a video featuring the Zuma 125 (or BWS 125, as it is known internationally) getting rough and rugged in the dirt.
