Yamaha YZF-R description

Thanks for looking at this posting.
I have a very rough looking 2005 Yamaha R1 that I picked up from a friend before he deployed.
For looks, this bike is very rough. I will be up front and honest about the shape and condition. Please ask for any clarification. Contact me directly at justinjlopez86@gmail.com

But it has a great foundation. It is a strong engine on a good frame with good tires, etc. This bike would be BEST suited for a practice track bike. NOT to impress your friends with its looks.
There are a few issues that need to be worked, but can be done so very easily. The fuel tank has two pinhole leaks that just developed within the month as I was trying to clean the tank. And the fuel pump needs to be cleaned/replaced. The bike runs, but the fuel storage and delivery will keep you from optimum performance. Also, the chain is rusty and needs to be oiled.

It's a great bike, but I don't have the time to work on it. I've priced all used parts on eBay that I'd buy to replace them (fuel tank= 130, fuel pump= 80, and new fairings= 270). I think with a little love and elbow grease, a person could have a great bike to ride.

Finally, my friend (deployed), couldn't hand over the title to me before he left. Long story short, he dropped the bike off at my house but forgot to bring the paperwork with it. We remain in contact, but it's difficult with him out of the country for a year. He is currently working to ship me the title now, which is in his possession, but the process is slow due to his current location and assignment. The bike was last registered at Fort Bragg, NC, but I'm stationed with the bike here at Fort Sill, OK. So applying for a lost title is difficult for me as well.
So this is a problem you would have to tackle if you want it for a road bike, and bear with us as we work through the administrative process. You will get the title, and we can arrange a deal to ensure you receive it.

Thanks again, and please feel free to ask for any more info! I have pics and video of it running.
Please contact me directly at justinjlopez86@gmail.com and I'll send you pics and video.

2014 AMA Supercross – Seattle Results

Mon, 14 Apr 2014

Ryan Villopoto won his fifth race of the season while James Stewart took second place to just barely remain in contention for the 2014 AMA Supercross title. Meanwhile it was a bitter-sweet podium for third-place finisher KTM‘s Ryan Dungey who was officially mathematically eliminated from title contention. Racing in his home town of Seattle, Wash., Villopoto led every lap en route to an easy win, his fifth of the season.

Yamaha Named Official Motorcycle Of Road America

Thu, 02 May 2013

The economic downturn hit the motorcycle world particularly hard, as many factory-backed road racing efforts closed shop. The decision, while unfortunate, isn’t hard to understand, as racing at the highest levels isn’t cheap, and a factory involvement means added pressure to succeed, which ultimately means spending more money to do so. Through it all, however, Yamaha has remained involved with the sport, fielding factory teams and sponsoring various riding schools and even racetracks.

You want a nice little car, you do.

We ran a couple of stories last week - both, coincidentally, about new Kawasakis. One was the first peek of the new ZX10R – hot stuff you’d imagine – the other, the new W800 retro parallel twin. I suppose it shouldn’t have shocked us, which story was most popular in terms of hits but it really does mark a seismic shifts in British biking attitudes that the W800 story doubled the hits of the ZX10 piece.
