Yamaha RD400 description

1977 Yamaha RD400 cycle up for auction. We picked a few bikes to part out but felt that this would make someone a good restoration or cafe racer project. First I do NOT have a title but can provide a bill of sale if needed. Also, as of right now I do not have a key. This was packed away for many years and will need the usual battery, gas, carb clean etc to get running. I have noticed that the brakes are not working and calipers are loose on the cycle. Carbs and air box off but included. The engine turns over nicely and when kicked over 3 times the right cylinder has 110 lbs and left has 120 lbs compression. I do not have the key so I cannot tell you if it will spark or not. Rear fender looks cut off and taillight is off something else. Has all the usual rust that a bike sitting has, seat is torn, tank has a couple dents. Inside the tank I do not know as, again no key. This is NOT a running bike, it is a project for someone. I have too much going on otherwise I would keep it. Starting bid is the lowest I will take for the bike so please do NOT send offers!!! Please ask questions and I will try my best to answer. Local pick up is preferred, any shipping is sole responsibility of the buyer. Cash on pick up will be method of payment, a $100 deposit is required within 24 hours thru Paypal. If planning to use Paypal for full payment you will pay the extra 3% fee to use it. Anyone is welcome to come view the bike in person Monday thru Friday 10am to 5pm at 3271 Central Ave, Dubuque IA 52001

French Moto Website Anticipates Versys 1000 at EICMA 2011

Mon, 24 Oct 2011

Musings of a liter-size engined Kawasaki Versys have circulated the web for a few years now, as loyalists of the likable Versys 650, as well as displacement-driven riders waiting in the wings, have pondered the potential of a more powerful adventure bike from Kawasaki that’s in the same league as BMW’s R1200GS and Yamaha’s Super Tenere. Alas, nothing of the sort has ever left the lips of Kawasaki, let alone go into production. Recently, however, the French motorcycle website, Moto-net.com, has produced convincing images that appear like photos of a complete Versys 1000, including matching hard luggage.
