Yamaha Other description

Up for sale is my 2009 R1. I drove this bike off the show room floor in 2010 and will cry to see it go.Bike has 2200 mis and thefollowing mods: Graves header back stainless/carbon exhaust (no cats), Kevlarcolor matched windscreen, carbon sliders, carbon rear tire hugger, integratedtaillighs/turn signals, solo seat cover, various other carbon pieces. Bike is extremely clean, but unfortunately due to anidiot driver who rear ended me dead stopped at 300 mis on the odo, it has a rebuilt title.The only damage caused was a torn rear tire and broken bolt boss on the seatsub frame. I talked the adjuster into salvaging it pretty easily because heknew the speeds these bikes are capable of and he didn't want his name onanything involved with repairing it. I did a filament string test for alignment (simpletried and true method) between front and rear tires/wheels and everything was 100% withinfactory specs. I've since had the bike to over 175mph (in Mexico of course) andabsolutely positively as stable and wobble free as it was from the factory. Theonly part I had to replace due to the accident was the rear tire. The bike didn't even go over on its side. Only oneother panel was scratched, I truly mean minimal damage involved.Please askquestions before bidding.

Mon, 30 Jan 2012

Like Kenny Roberts, Valentino Rossi has got his own ranch where he has built his own private motocross track and dirt oval. The above YouTube video shows Rossi training on the flat-track circuit that makes up his 'MotoRanch' located near his home town of Tavullia. He's shown riding a Yamaha, but that's probably because Ducati don't have themselves a scrambler.

MotoGP to Re-Visit Rookie Rule

Tue, 19 Jun 2012

MotoGP organizers are re-opening discussion for the series’ rookie rule which prevents new riders from entering the series with factory teams. Introduced following the 2009 MotoGP season, the rule was designed to give satellite teams the chance to field young up-and-coming talents  they otherwise wouldn’t have been able to sign. The theory was the rule would protect the satellite teams and spread out the talent pool.

AMA Sportbike: 2012 Daytona 200 Results

Tue, 20 Mar 2012

The 2012 Daytona 200 delivered another fairy-tale finish with underdog privateer Joey Pascarella and the Project 1 Atlanta team fending off a pack of three other racers to win by a slim 0.048 second margin. Competing in just his first Daytona 200, 19-year-old Pascarella from Victorville, Calif., held the lead for 41 out of 57 laps to finish first ahead of a last year’s winner Jason DiSalvo while Cameron Beaubier squeezed by 2010 Daytona Sportbike Champion Martin Cardenas in a photo-finish to take third. For the Project 1 Atlanta team, the win marked a dramatic turnaround from a let down in 2011.
