READ THIS: if you are looking for a show bike, look elsewhere. if you think this bike is perfect, look elsewhere. if you are trying to make a huge profit on this bike by flipping it, look elsewhere. if you appreciate vintage bikes and want one that looks pretty good, is a rare model, runs and rides with a title, read on... Original paint on tank and headlight bucket. Both sidecovers/oil tank have been painted white years ago (they should be blue). Has gas dipstick in tank. Tank has some dings and dents, but overall presentable. Chrome on the rims is nice, as well as the general condition of the bike.

1.5litre V8 two-stroke
Thu, 21 Apr 2011I don't know about you but I've yet to ride anything with two wheels and an engine that I didn't enjoy in one form or another. From minimotos to 1800 Goldwings, there's always some fun to be had even if it is just the novel experience that makes you grin. I am not one for a pidgeonhole, that's for sure.
And in my front room this evening...
Tue, 24 Nov 2009NO IT'S NOT an illusion: you're looking at the 1981 Yamaha OW53, ridden by double World Champion Barry Sheene in the first three rounds of the '81 500GP championship. The bike's owner, aircraft engineering entrepreneur Chris Wilson, has lent the £100,000 GP machine to Visordown for our stand at this year's NEC Motorcycle Show - 27th November to 6th December 2009. Sheene raced the bike in the 1981 championship, where he finished fourth at Salzburgring, sixth at Hockenheim and third at Monza.
Yamaha Wraps Up Sepang MotoGP Test
Thu, 02 Feb 2012Pre-season test lap times aren’t a precise barometer for how the 2012 MotoGP Championship season will go, but Yamaha has to feel good about its results after this week’s testing at Malaysia’s Sepang circuit. Last February at Sepang, Honda riders were the talk of the preseason session, taking three of the top four lap times on each day of the test. That pattern repeated itself in the final championship standings with Casey Stoner taking the championship, Dani Pedrosa finishing third and Andrea Dovizioso fourth.
