Yamaha Other description

2013 YAMAHA STRYKER, Totally Custom -- Even Before You Make It Your Own. With its raked-out front end and "fists in the wind" riding position, the Stryker is pure attitude. And with an 80-cubic-inch V-twin, and a beautiful final belt drive, it churns out plenty of low-end torque that gets to the ground in a very satisfying way. Key Features: A muscular, forward-lunging look reinterprets iconic custom chopper styling for the 21st century. High-end looks without the high-end price tag. Gutsy 1304cc, fuel-injected liquid-cooled V-Twin engine churns out the inspired, big-engine feel riders will love. Even with its radically raked out front end, Stryker has the superbly nimble and lightweight handling that choppers and mid-class competitors can only dream about. Low seat height (26.4 inches) allows riders to put both feet on the ground and helps provide this bike s natural, relaxed and comfortable riding position. The wide 210-series rear tire and chopper-inspired 21-inch front wheel reinforce the muscular styling of the bike. No cheap plastic fenders here this authentic cruiser has real steel fenders customizers love. Classic belt drive, too. Get started on your own customization with two trim packages in high-quality chrome, or an aggressive looking, blacked out package.

Filling a void with an RD350LC

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

Last winter I managed to fill a void in my life when I stumbled on a very reasonably priced Yamaha RD350LC.  It was a tad scruffy, had the wrong exhausts but most importantly it was blue and white with all numbers matching.  I had the usual euphoria when the deal was done but I underestimated how much pleasure this particular purchase would continue to deliver another eight months down the line. The difference with this old bike is, instead of just taking it for the occasional ride I was talked into doing a full nut and bolt restoration.  Having never taking a bike apart completely before, initially it was quite daunting but I soon found the RD is easy to work on so it turned into a truly satisfying experience.  I’ve had some help from LC enthusiasts with the rebuild, however, the stripping, sourcing and organising was a total labour of love.  And call me sad but it has made me bond with this bike like no other which only adds to the feel good factor.  The bike cost £1800 and I’ve spent around £1000 but I reckon my mint Elsie is now worth a fair bit more.   I fancy rejuvenating a Fizzy  next time but there’s lots of other cheap 70’s and 80’s winter projects  out there so why not have a go yourself?
