Yamaha Road Star description

2003 Limited Edition "Liquid Silver" #1275 of 1600
Road Star Silverado.

I am selling because I no longer ride due to being busy with the family these days. The bike just turned 10,000 miles and is in perfect mechanical condition. I have always taken very good care of my machines, especially this bike. I only use Mobil 1 synthetic oil filter with Amsoil 20W-50 fully synthetic motorcycle oil. 

Mods:
This bike has Cobra pipes on it that make it just a little bit louder. Great base / sound! Not too loud though. Other than that, no modifications to the mechanicals. 

This has been the most solid reliable bike I have ever owned. Zero issues what-so-ever. Always starts up right away and idles strong. No leaks, no drips, no burning oil. Does not run lean or rich or any popping, runs perfect always has. No issues riding either. Never ever been crashed or even laid down. The tires are near new Metzler 880 wide white wall tires. 

Extra Chrome. 
When I first got this bike 10 years ago I added a lot of extra chrome. I only bought OEM Yamaha "Star Accessories" chrome add-ons...such as Big Bar "highway bars" light visors, chrome floor board, etc...

One thing I have noticed. No matter how much I tried to keep the bike clean and take care of it, a few of the "Star Accessories" have slightly rusted/pitted. However, it is very minor and the main chrome on the bike is perfect. I think the "Star Accessories" must use a different chroming process. The oxidation on the accessories is very minor and if you want, you can simply remove any additional chrome I added and/or put back any of the original black/rubber factory parts as I still have all of the original parts that I took off to replace with chrome...they all go with the sale of the bike. Other than that, the main bike is perfect.

I am also selling a nearly new 2006 Kendon Stand Up Trailer.

No shipping. I encourage you to come see the bike in person.

1974: Onboard an MV racer with Phil Read

Fri, 19 Feb 2010

ANOTHER CRACKING BIT of vintage racing footage, this time featuring multiple motorcycle world champion Phil Read on the awesome-sounding MV Agusta 500-4.The footage is from the 1974 movie 'The Iron Horse' made by Frenchman Pierre-William Glenn.Read’s 1974 500cc World Championship victory was the last year a four-stroke won the world title before the advent of the MotoGP class in 2002. Giacomo Agostini won the crown from Yamaha in 1975, followed by Suzuki-mounted Barry Sheene in '76 and '77. The footage is bloody good, considering the camera technology of the day.

2014 AMA Supercross – Arlington Results

Tue, 18 Feb 2014

James Stewart‘s hot streak continues with his second-consecutive win and fourth AMA Supercross podium in five weeks after an impressive effort at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Fresh off of signing a contract extension with Yoshimura Suzuki, Stewart took control of the Arlington main event on the third lap, passing holeshot-taker Ryan Dungey and running away with the win. With his win last week at San Diego, Stewart becomes the first rider to win back-to-back races this season and establishes himself as a championship contender as we approach the mid-way point of the 2014 season.
