Yamaha V Max description

Up for auction is a 2009 V-Max.  It has 11,891 miles.  Front tire has 1,000 miles on it.  Rear tire has about 2,500 miles on it.  It has Power Commander 5, Mike's X Pipe, FXtuner's Speedo Eliminator and Exup Eliminator, Corbin passenger seat and backrest, fender eliminator with smoke LED tail light, UFO air suspension, new battery, factory Yamaha touring windshield, Rizoma LED turn signals, K&N air filter, have all factory parts to go with bike.  Have had many parts powder coated black. Bike is very fast and not for beginners.  Fluids changed religiously at 3,500 miles.  All factory recalls completed.  Aftermarket mirrors (more stylish).  Only reason for selling, have decided to grow up and slow down a little and bought a Harley Road Glide.  Was going to keep this bike and use it for playing, but cannot justify a bike to sit and go to waste and not be enjoyed (who am I kidding, my wife said I couldn't have both).  Bike has normal scuffs for the age of the bike.  Will assist with delivery between Valdosta and Panama City when deposit is made (deposit is non-refundable).  Bike is for sale locally and I reserve the right to remove this listing, may also have a few extra miles if taking one last play ride. Any questions, call Jim (229) 412-8214.  If you have any negative feedback or feedback of less than 10, I need to be contacted before you bid or your bid may be blocked.

Kevin Ash, one year on

Wed, 08 Jan 2014

I’ve lost dozens of friends in bike racing over the years, and while each death was a shock and incredibly sad, I’ve always had some kind of internal coping mechanism that allowed me to carry on relatively unaffected.  Maybe it’s because I was always extremely passionate and committed when taking part in my dangerous sport so was also prepared to pay the ultimate price should things go wrong.  Rightly or wrongly I’ve taken comfort from the fact that these unfortunate racers have checked out while doing something they love.   I’ve also lost a few journalist friends in bike accidents over the years but for some reason these have hit me harder.  The worst and possibly as it is the most recent is Kevin Ash who was killed last January while on a BMW launch in South Africa.  Starting in 2001, over a period of ten years, I was in Kevin’s company on countless new bike launches in pretty much every corner of the world.  At times he was cocky and occasionally irritating but always entertaining with a wicked sense of humour.  He was many things but no one can deny he was a brilliant journalist and his technical knowledge was second to none.  I always appreciated his complete enthusiasm to all things biking as he would ride through any weather on a daily basis to jobs or airports and seemed to always be tinkering with winter projects (mainly Ducatis) at home.  I also admired how much work he got through as he had columns in more than one weekly publication plus all his launch and web work. He was a competent safe rider who was certainly quick enough to evaluate any new bike thrown his way.  Kevin also drove a Porsche but then none of us are perfect!   I looked to Kevin as a wise Owl so not long after I started working with TWO/ Visordown, I asked him on an R1 launch in Australia he thought the motorcycle industry was currently in a good place.  His reply was, ‘we’ve just been flown here business class, been taken by speed boat to our five star hotel under Sydney Harbour Bridge, Yamaha have wined and dined us and furnished us with expensive gifts each day, what do you think Niall?  How times have changed.  On the subject on air travel he once told me, ‘when travelling business or first class it’s not about the pampering, comfy beds or fine dining, the important part is looking smug as you walk straight past all the people lining up at the cattle class check in! On more than one occasion I had food or drink spurt out when Kevin would deliver unexpected one line funnies at the dinner table.

Ben Spies Video Interview on 2012 MotoGP Season [Video]

Thu, 22 Mar 2012

Yamaha Factory Racing today posted on its YouTube page a video interview with Ben “Elbowz” Spies, in which Spies discusses the soon to start 2012 season of MotoGP. In his usual calm, cool and under control manner Spies speaks frankly on how he prefers the 1000cc GP machine, saying it suits his style (elbows out!) better than the previous seasons’ 800cc bikes because the extra torque and horsepower of the liter-class bikes are, essentially, better matched to his physical stature. Spies also answers honestly the question of who he thinks he needs to keep an eye in 2012, including his teammate, Jorge Lorenzo.
