Yamaha XS description

Here is a 1980 Yamaha XS Eleven with 54,813 miles that needs work,i picked this up locally from a party who wasnt completely honest about the condition of the bike he said it needed carb work,runs with the choke on only,battery,brake work and has a charging problem it doesnt charge might need a stater,but he didnt mention anything about the smoke that comes out of the left muffler and the oil that leaks a little from somewhere,i arrived at his house and he had it running i said its smoking out the left muffler and he said dont worry about that it will go away i had to use starting fluid to start it,i got home with the bike and it started without starting fluid but still smoked maybe even more than it did when i was talking to the seller so im guessing it needs valve seats,or valve work,or rings,or maybe the carbs are leaking gas down the cylinders or all of the above so im passing the project onto the next person who wants to repair it,tank is clean inside,throttle and choke move freely,i took a picture of the tach while it was running and got lucky for a secound and snapped a picture of the tach at  about five thousand rpms,clutch lever pulls in,tranni shifts threw all the gears good and i asked the seller if the tranni was good and he said yes,front brakes were dragging on the rotors so they had to be onbolted to move the bike,horn works,right turn signal works,left comes on but doesnt blink,headlite taillite and brake lite work,bike has a custom paint job and a touch up pen same color goes with also the tool kit,selling as is,buyer pays shipping and finds there own shipper not sure there prices i can meet them at my door and i dont really have the room to store the bike after the auction ends,paypal accepted as payment if your not local,i have a clear Title,auction may end early because a watcher on ebay might want to purchase the bike before the auction ends,Thanks for looking and good luck bidding Carl in forest lake minnesota 55025.

James Toseland Announces Retirement from Racing

Fri, 09 Sep 2011

Two-time World Superbike Champion James Toseland announced his immediate retirement from motorcycle racing due to a debilitating injury to his right wrist. Signed with the BMW Motor Italia racing team, Toseland has been limited to just seven of 20 races in this season’s WSBK Championship due to the wrist injury initially suffered during a private test at Spain’s Aragon circuit in March. After undergoing an operation for the injury, Toseland made two attempts at returning to racing, first at the Miller Motorsports Park round in May and again at the Silverstone round in July.

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.

MotoGP to Hold Official Test in Argentina; South American Nation Returning to Calendar for 2014

Thu, 11 Apr 2013

Dorna Sports announced there will be a MotoGP test at Argentina’s Circuito Internacional Termas de Rio Hondo in July to allow teams to prepare for the track’s expected addition to the 2014 MotoGP calendar. Argentina was actually supposed to join the MotoGP tour this season, but the round was scrapped because of a dispute between the country and Spain after the Argentine government seized control of a Repsol subsidiary. Repsol is, of course, a prominent sponsor of several teams including Honda‘s factory team.
