Yamaha Other description
2011 Yamaha V-Star 1300 Stryker, The Yamaha Stryker is the epitome of a cool cruiser that comes with some serious performance capabilities. Well touch on the latter in a little bit, but for now, the name of the game is the Strykers overall design, which, in a word, is downright sexy.A muscular, forward-lunging look reinterprets the iconic custom chopper styling for the 21st century. With its high-end looks, the Stryker comes with a low seat height of 26.4," one of the lowest of its class on the market. There are also real steel fenders that can be easily customized, covering the wide 210-series rear tire and chopper-inspired 21-inch front wheel that reinforces the muscular styling of the bike. Merging with the narrow point of the saddle is a 4-gallon fuel tank while added accessories, including custom seats, quick-release windscreens and luggage to billet wheels and backrests, all point to a package thats just as imposing as it is powerful.Engine A 1,304cc, liquid-cooled, short stroke, SOHC, 4-valve per cylinder, fuel injected, 60 V-twin engine powers the Stryker, pumping out impressive power and torque numbers for excellent cruising performance. The engine features a 36mm intake and 32mm exhaust valves with special single coil springs for great power and torque with valves angled at 20 degrees from the center. Specially designed roller rockers activate the valves, allowing a greater amount of valve lift without causing excessive camshaft wear and friction. The camshafts have also been specially designed for use with roller rockers with a pent roof combustion chamber design and optimized squish area forces the fuel and air mixture toward the center of the combustion chamber for more complete combustion and, in the end, improved power and cleaner emissions. A new exhaust system, designed specifically for Stryker, also adds to the awesome look of the bike while optimizing its engine performance.Chassis and Suspension The Yamaha Stryker delivers the kind of handling thats just unmatched in this mid-size custom cruiser segment. The muscular steering head on this double-cradle steel frame helps give the bike its lean, lightweight image. The 6 yoke and raked triple clamps combine to provide a total of 40 of fork rake, achieving the aggressive raked out styling image and solid straight-line performance thats tried-and-true for Yamaha. It also provides nimble handling characteristics, even at low speeds. As for the brakes, the Yamaha Stryker carries large 320 mm front discs to go with the 310mm rear disc brake, providing serious stopping power that helps in keeping the power of the Stryker within arms length.

Mon, 26 Sep 2011Yamaha has released a new video of the 2012 YZF-R1 featuring MotoGP racer Ben Spies taking the new bike with Yamaha’s 50th Anniversary limited edition livery to a track day. Spies who won the 2009 World Superbike Championship on a Yamaha R1 so he is obviously very familiar with the sportbike which will now be available with a seven-level traction control system. Spies appears a little bored as the other riders learn the layout of the track and when they get to the track, he calmly waits while they take off around him before dropping the hammer and showing them how it’s done.
AMA Sportbike: 2012 Daytona 200 Results
Tue, 20 Mar 2012The 2012 Daytona 200 delivered another fairy-tale finish with underdog privateer Joey Pascarella and the Project 1 Atlanta team fending off a pack of three other racers to win by a slim 0.048 second margin. Competing in just his first Daytona 200, 19-year-old Pascarella from Victorville, Calif., held the lead for 41 out of 57 laps to finish first ahead of a last year’s winner Jason DiSalvo while Cameron Beaubier squeezed by 2010 Daytona Sportbike Champion Martin Cardenas in a photo-finish to take third. For the Project 1 Atlanta team, the win marked a dramatic turnaround from a let down in 2011.
And it's goodbye from him
Tue, 17 Aug 2010THIS IS Valentino Rossi's farewell letter to his Fiat Yamaha team following the announcement the flambouyant Italian is to head to Ducati MotoGP in 2011.The hand-written letter, mistakes and all, is written in almost a 'my first romance' kinda way. It's touching, if a little bizarre. Some of the letter reads:“Unfortunately even the most beautiful love stories finish, but they leave a lot of wonderful memories, like when my M1 and I kissed for the first time on the grass at Welkom, when she looked straight in my eyes and told me ‘I love you!'"Somehow, we can't see Casey Stoner gushing quite as freely when he leaves Ducati for Repsol Honda.
