Yamaha V Star description

I purchased this bike in November of 2014 and have put just about 3,800 miles on it. I have maintained it very well including getting all recommended servicing. It has been garage kept (with a cover too) and I have used a trickle charger in the winter to keep the battery in good condition. Two major alterations have been the changing of the front sprocket from a 16 tooth to a 17 tooth and dropping the rear from 45 teeth to 43 to increase the stock gearing which was far too low. The bike now rides much better and even gets increased fuel mileage (I've achieved over 90mpg). Here is what you will get with this purchase:

1) 2014 Yamaha V-Star 250 in Pearl White w/ sprocket upgrades
2) Original sprockets
3) Bike cover
4) Trickle charger
5) USB connector (this is already wired up so you can use your phone for GPS, etc)
6) Cell phone mount
7) Handlebar clock

All the specifications for the bike are below. It's a great starter bike for a new rider but I highly recommend it for anyone. I'm selling it to pursue my true life calling: aviation, and I'll be sad to see it go. EMAIL ME so I can provide you with a review I did over a year ago on the bike. Lots of close up high def video of the bike including exhaust sound, test ride, etc. 

The title is currently with the bank whom I'm financing with just so you know. 

Asking price: $3,200 obo

Dynojet Sponsoring GEICO Motorcycle Superbike Shootout Pro Sportbike Class

Tue, 22 Apr 2014

The new three-event GEICO Motorcycle Superbike Shootout Presented by Yamaha is gaining steam as Dynojet Research has stepped up to provide sponsorship for the Pro Sportbike class. Dynojet will also have its popular dyno performance truck on-site for race support. Devised to fill an 11-week gap in professional road racing between mid-March and late May, the Superbike Shootout was inspired by the successful British Superbike Championship series.

Q3 2013 US Motorcycle Sales Results

Fri, 01 Nov 2013

Motorcycle and scooter sales in the U.S. in 2013 remain consistent with last year’s figures, according to data released by the Motorcycle Industry Council. Several manufacturers blamed poor weather for the poor start this year, and the rebounding sales in the third quarter helped to negate the slow sales from earlier in the year.

Back in the day, the All Japan 500cc Championship at Tsukuba

Fri, 24 Jun 2011

This ‘you tube’ gem sent to me recently brought back some funny memories from the scary but incredibly exciting days of 500cc two stroke racing. This particular race was the final round of the All Japan 500cc Championship at Tsukuba Circuit where I enjoyed a head to head battle with national hero Tadahiko Taira. Yamaha’s favourite son at the time, ‘tie wrap’ as we liked to call him, was taller and better looking than most Japanese riders (maybe a war baby?) and went on to win nearly everything in Japan during his career.
