Yamaha XT description

1996 Yamaha XT 225 dual sport motorcycle. Single cylinder, 4 stroke air cooled, electric start with a mono shock adjustable suspension.

I bought this bike 3 years ago for my son, to ride to school, practice and events, ect.(FYI In Arkansas a 14 year old can legally ride a motorcycle under 249cc anywhere. Check your laws.)

I have installed new: Battery, Brakes, Sprockets, Fuel Valve, Chain, Air Cleaner, Dyna Port Carb Kit and Rear Tire.(Rear tire has less than 50 miles! Front tire has 50-55% tread.)

This is an Excellent Bike. It runs great and gets phenominal mileage! (67 mpg plus for my kid, 58 with a 260 lb rider) It will cruise easily at 60 -65 but does slow on hills. It will top a decent hill with a 260 lb rider at 48 mph in high gear. (Would've been faster if shifted down but wanted to check it)

It will go anywhere you want to drive it.

It uses NO oil.

The ONLY problems are: Cracked signal light (my son let it fall over in diveway) its cracked but still in tact and works fine (see pic) Also has a few cosmetic scratches.(handlebars from tiedowns and a few on plastic from gen use)

This is a great bike for a starter bike(its not to tall)  run around bike, haul on your RV, cattle checker or Gas Saver. Its older but in perfect condition.

NOTE: This item is for sale locally and auction may end at any time without notice.

Yamaha had a relatively tame showing at the recent EICMA Milan show, with an updated TMax as the Tuning Fork Company’s biggest reveal. The upcoming Tokyo Motor Show (Dec. 3-11) promises to be more interesting with Yamaha showcasing three new concepts including the Y125 MOEGI pictured here.

Intermot 2012: 2013 Yamaha FZ8 Announced

Tue, 02 Oct 2012

Along with the announcement of the updated 2013 FJR1300A, Yamaha also announced that its naked middleweight roadster, the FZ8, has received a handful of updates for 2013. Key among the modest improvements is revised EFI programming for smoother, snappier throttle response, and front suspension is now full adjustability. The fork has new preload and rebound adjustments atop the fork legs, while a new compression damping adjuster is located at the bottom of the fork.

Yard Built XV950 Pure Sports Channels the Yamaha FZ750

Tue, 29 Apr 2014

The latest product Yamaha Motor Europe’s Yard Built custom specials is a Star Bolt transformed into a replica of an FZ750. Dubbed the XV950 Pure Sports after the words written on the original FZ750′s fairing, the project was produced by Italy’s LowRide magazine and Radikal Chopper and styling by Oberdan Bezzi. The Star Bolt – known in Europe as the XV950 – is nearly unrecognizable in this new guise, except for its 942cc V-Twin engine.
