Yamaha DT 250 description

For Sale is a great 1973 Yamaha DT 250 motorcycle. Barn find original survivor!!! This was converted to a MX bike at some point early on, someone removed the endure lights and low metal front fender, also added aftermarket performance exhaust for motocross racing. Has the MX fork brace and original vintage silver plastic MX front fender with mud flap. Looks to be complete except for clutch lever. Bike isn't perfect and has some dings, dents, marks, scuffs, scratches, etc. from use and storage, but overall decent original condition as seen in pics. A little Dirty and dusty from spending the last 30+ years tucked away in a barn!  Gas Tank  paint is dirty but still shiny! Engine is free, kicks over with lots of compression. Tires even still hold air! Shouldn't take much to get this bike going again! Great candidate for restoration or vintage race bike. Great winter project! Hard to find in this original untouched condition. Priced to move fast. Bikes in similar or worse condition  have recently sold for $1000+. Due to the age and mechanical nature of this item it is being sold as-is, in as found condition with no warranties said or implied. Will be sold with Bill of Sale only. Local pick up in Lansing, Mi area or may be willing to deliver/ meet part way for pick up for a small fee if pre arranged with seller before bidding. Item is also for sale locally so seller reserves the right to end this listing if sold locally. $500 deposit via paypal is due immediately upon end of auction, and remainder must be paid in full cash upon pick up within 7 days of auctions end, unless pre arranged with seller. Good Luck Bidding and Happy Trails.

Pipewerx's new Slash Cut slip-ons

Fri, 16 Sep 2011

Pipe Werx, the British performance motorcycle exhaust company, has added a new product to its range – the Slash Cut Trim. Priced at only £79.95, delivered, the Slash Cut Trim easily bolts on with its supplied mounting clamp and spring to the catalytic converter in place of the heavy standard exit pipes on Yamaha’s R6 (2006-2011) and Suzuki’s GSX-R600/750 (K8, K9, L0). With the main aim of reducing weight and improving aesthetics on these machines, the Slash Cut Trim does give a marginal increase of throttle response and exhaust note.

A breath of fresh air

Fri, 09 Nov 2012

Dean Benstead's air-powered bike project, O2 Pursuit, which we spoke about a year ago, seems to have come along nicely since. Here's a video of the Australian's rotary air compression-engined Yamaha WR250R being taken out for a spin. Apparently it can hit 87 mph and cover more than 60 miles on a scuba-tankful's worth.
