Yamaha XS description

1972 Yamaha XS650 for sale.

This bike is original paint and in pretty solid condition for its age. It starts easily , runs good , and shifts through the gears. Petcock seals were replaced due to leaking petcock. Bike has brand new front tire (under 5 miles of test riding). Rear tire is near new. Bike could use some polishing and clean up, but is more than street worthy as is. It has 6987 original miles. The bike may still need some fine tuning, but starts, runs, shifts and stops now. It's one major flaw, is the dent on the right side of tank. I have seen some nice condition tanks sell for under $100 on here, and had planned on buying one to put on the bike, but a nice enough one has not come up for sale. Thankfully, they can be found though! The bike has a clean and clear, ready to transfer title. I can store for up to 30 days after payment is made, and can work with your shipper if needed. International buyers are welcome, but please message me before purchase.

$500 non refundable deposit via PayPal within 24 hours of auction, with the rest paid via wire transfer or cash before pick up.

Please examine the pictures CLOSELY, and don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have before purchase.

In 1998 and 1999 he won the 250cc races and since then has had nine podiums in the premier-class including five victories, the last of which was in 2005.

How do 1000s compare to the 800s

Wed, 09 Nov 2011

Now MotoGP has completed its transformation from 800 to 1000cc, how do the lap times between the different bikes compare using Valencia and the post-season test as a benchmark.. Yesterday, Dani Pedrosa was the quickest 1000 on his Honda RC213V setting a time of 1:32.186. To find the quickest time from the outgoing 800 era you have to look at his current Repsol Honda team-mate, Casey Stoner, but it wasn't set on a Honda.
