                                                                         1972 Yamaha XS650

1972 Yamaha XS650 .    Vintage time capsule.     V.I.N.  S650-122291  Manufacture Date Tag:  3/72  This bike is a survivor.  I have ridden the bike and it rides good.  It brakes well and seems to handle as it should.  
Original paint, chrome, handlebars, seat, gauges, fenders, everything except the slip on mufflers are an aftermarket muffler and they function well.  It starts and runs good, shifts, brakes and the lights work too. The carbs were recently cleaned and the bike was tuned up, valves set, timing etc.... The mufflers are aftermarket and function nicely. The tires are good and the gauges work.  Rims and spokes are original and very solid with just a few small rust spots.  The fuel tank has some exterior oxidation as is evident on the lower right side,  however, the tank is very solid and the rust is only surface rust. Chain and sprockets are good and function well.  There are 3 small rips in the seat cover.   It does have new air filters as well.  This is not a perfect restored bike as you can see.  But, it is an original time capsule.  Bid to win!!! Thank you very much for your interest in my bike and good luck to all.   Please feel free to ask any questions about the bike and I will be happy to do my best to answer them.  
PAYMENT TERMS: You must have an active Pay Pal account that is linked to your email address.  Please send me your email address as soon as the auction ends so I can send you a Pay Pal Invoice to pay for the bike.  Payment to be made upon your receipt of my Pay Pal Invoice after the sale ends.  Please have your funds ready in your Pay Pal account.  Thank you.  If this does not work for you,  then please message me prior to bidding.

SHIPPING:  You make your own shipping arrangements and pay for your own shipping, or, pick the bike up in person.  I can store it for you for up to 60 days maximum if that helps but after 60 days, I will have to charge storage fees of  $5 per day.  I just don't have room to store motorcycles.

2015 Yamaha FZ-07 Announced for Canada

Tue, 18 Mar 2014

Yamaha announced it would import the MT-07 to Canada as the 2015 FZ-07. Until now, the twin-cylinder roadster had only been announced for Europe as the MT-07; there is no word the FZ-07 will be offered in the U.S., but the Canadian announcement is a good sign it may be coming soon. Revealed at EICMA, the FZ-07 slots in under the three-cylinder FZ-09 (known as the MT-09 outside of the North America) with a newly-developed liquid-cooled 689cc parallel-Twin engine.

Mon, 17 Mar 2014

Yoshimura Suzuki‘s James Stewart captured his third win of the 2014 AMA Supercross season and 48th 450 class victory of his career, tying him with Ricky Carmichael for second on the all-time win list behind Jeremy McGrath‘s 72. Racing before a crowd of 50,856 fans at Ford Field in Detroit, Stewart took the lead from holeshot-taker Cole Seely shortly before the end of the second lap and led the rest of the 20-lap race for the win. Stewart led by as much as 7.1 second but eased off at the end, crossing the finish less than two seconds ahead of Kawasaki‘s Ryan Villopoto.

The World Endurance Championship Starts This Weekend

Wed, 23 Apr 2014

Endurance racing is perhaps the ultimate test of both man and machine. In the past, teams would pace themselves in order to rest both elements enough to make a final push at the end. These days, however, motorcycles are more reliable than ever, and riders train like triathletes.
