Yamaha XS description
Up for sale is my 1977 Yamaha XS650 Motorcycle Hardtail Bobber with springer front end. I bought this recently on eBay and had it shipped to California. Unfortunately it was shipped not running. Since purchase I bought BRAND NEW battery, coil, ignition wires, spark plugs, fuel filters and gave it a oil change and carb clean. And with a little patience and knowledge of older bikes, I got the bike running. She could use a little timing adjustment, but she purrs like a kitten when idling. Under load she hesitates a bit but once the RPM's are up she rides well and shifts well. She's loud too which I like. Now that being said she is not without fault, and anyone who purchases should know a little something about older bikes. Points, periodic carb cleaing, general maintenance, so on and so forth. She has a slight oil leak left side cylinder, that doesn't show up all the time (probably the gasket) $13.00 bucks at mikesxs. Doesn't happen all the time, but I thought I'd mention it. I would also change the throttle cable soon too, that can found on eBay and Mikesxs. I have been as honest as possible and I will answer any questions to the best of my knowledge. Now as far as the title is concerned I did not get it inspected at CHP but the DMV fees ($180) are paid in California. That being said if someone buys it from CA it is up to them to have it inspected and they are purchasing as-is. New owner takes the responsibility of getting it titled. CHP needs to verify the VIN I just dont have the time and to be honest I have moved on to another project. I am going to take a hit on this financially, truly my loss is your gain. There is over $5K with the new parts, DMV fees and shipping to CA. PLEASE LOOK AT MY PRICE, DONT ASK ME TO GO LOWER. Please feel free to ask questions I will answer them immediately. Thanks for looking. - I will not deliver, pick-up or shipping is up to the buyer. IN CASE ANYONE IS WONDERING THE BIKE DOES HAVE A CLEAR TITLE, JUST NOT IN CALIFORNIA.
A deposit of $500 is due within 24hrs and the balance in full 7 days of auction close or you will forfeit your deposit.

Ienatsch, Hill, Russell, Bestwick To Give Speech At Yale Today
Thu, 30 Jan 2014In what might be considered the most shocking news of 2014 so far, Nick Ienatsch and Ken Hill are going to Yale. While some might think the Chief and Lead instructors at the newly revamped Yamaha Champions Riding School are getting in over their heads, the two are at Yale as lead presenters for “Excellence In Motion: What Motorcycle Racing Can Teach Us About Success,” which begins at 4pm (local time) today. When put into context, their appearance at one of the nation’s top schools is understandable. Each has had their fair share of success aboard motorcycles, and they will be joined by two more champions on two-wheels, five-time Daytona 200 winner and 1993 World Superbike Champion Scott Russell, and Jamie Bestwick, an avid motorcyclist and winner of eight consecutive X-Games BMX Vert gold medals.
See Britain's land speed record hopeful at Race Retro 2010
Tue, 09 Mar 2010SEE THE MACHINE that could propel Britain to a new motorcycle land speed world record at The Race Retro 2010 show, held at Stoneleigh Park, Coventry from 12th to 14th March. Almost a year has passed since Visordown broke the news of the planned UK assault on the land speed record - this coming August the Angelic Bulldog team travels to Bonneville, where it is hoping to smash the 400mph barrier and bring the motorcycle Land Speed Record back to the UK for the first time since 1937. The current record stands at 360.913mph over a kilometre.
