Yamaha Road Star description

Very nice 1999 Yamaha Roadstar Silverado, 34th one into the USA. I have owned it since new and it has been a fantastic bike. Ridden regularly and always garage kept. 44,000 miles. Very well maintained. I just installed NEW metzler marathon front and rear tires and a new windshield and new windshield bag.
Fresh oil change and ready to go.

Extras: Those bags are Heritage classics modified with custom mounts to fit the Roadstar,  they are larger and look better than the stock Yamaha bags. The highway bar and pegs are also HD origin. The bike is jetted to run the Arlen Ness "big sucker" air kit. It runs flawlessly. Last long ride I got 50mpg. Those pipes are Roadhouse Classic Duals (with crossover) and offer a deep rumble sound.  The Steibel air horn is super loud and I am including a removable backrest (not pictured) and the factory shop manual.  The transmission recall was done by a local Yamaha shop nine years ago, no issues but yamaha had kept bugging me about it so I capitulated and got it done.  J&E HC pistons and dyna 2000 ignition. 

No trades.  Cash or certified check.

My Cadburys Boost YZF 750 comes back to life.

Sat, 01 Sep 2012

After winning my 3rd BSB title in 1998, as an end of season bonus, Yamaha UK kindly handed over my beloved Cadburys Boost YZF 750. There were three of these ex factory bikes in Rob Mac’s team; one went to me, the big man still has one, and the third was sold for a sum that was never disclosed. I had three cracking years on this special machine battling against team mates Whitham, Walker and Hislop and breaking most lap records along the way. The hard charging Bayliss, Reynolds and Rymer were also thrown into the mix on occasions just to make life even more interesting.

R1 noise, bike porn and a quick lap

Tue, 24 Apr 2012

Trawling the internet for a sound clip of the Crossplane Crank Yamaha R1 on full chatter, I came across this: a few fast laps on board with New Zealand Superbike racer Tony Rees as he works the CABS Throttle Blipper on his 2011 R1. (Skip to 7:35 for the fast ones.) CABS is a system used by Superbike teams that makes use of the R1’s digitally controlled throttle. When you change up a gear, the bike blips in the perfect amount of revs to save time on track and make downshifts as quick and easy as clutch-less upshifts.

Yamaha U.S. Increasing Club Level Road Racing Contingency

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

The state of road racing in America is hurting, there’s no doubt about that. But at least Yamaha is stepping up to the plate and increasing its contingency program for club level road racers 50% over last year. According to Yamaha, the program is designed to encompass a broad spectrum of road racing series across the U.S., from numerous club-level and regional sprint series events to the AMA Pro Road Racing series, including the addition of the ASRA Team Challenge Endurance Series.
