Yamaha V Star description

Up for bid, from the estate of a motorcycle enthusiast, is a very low mileage, ONLY 986 ACTUAL MILES, Yamaha XVS 1100 V Star, This motorcycle was part of a huge collection and has been setting, along with other bikes, for over 10 years. The owner, having fun, added a pair of rear LED turn signals as well as a pair of long "Shotgun style" loud drag pipes.  Bike has just been taken from the estate, carbs removed and cleaned, as well as the fuel tank and the rest of the fuel system. A new battery was then installed, along with new plugs and the bike started right up. Tires are like new and have no cracks.  I rode it about 5 miles and found it to be very responsive and powerful, for a 1100 V twin, as well as also  sounding great. This motorcycle is as new as it gets for it's age. Bike has only two small flaws, first is the left handgrip, that has a cut and second, the rear fender has a small scratch that appears to be on the clear but not thru  the color and should buff out.  Overall this is really a nice motorcycle.  PLEASE only serious bidders.  Only 48 states,   Pickup only.   Thanks

Frog eBike – the Electric Successor to 1985 Frog FZ750 Concept

Tue, 03 Apr 2012

San Francisco-based Frog Design released images of a new electric motorcycle concept, just as its influential Yamaha FZ750-based Rana concept gets enshrined at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Frog designer Jin Soek Hwang prepared the Frog eBike concept as an expression of how electric motor technology can influence motorcycle design. In a post on Frog’s blog, the designer says he was inspired in part by Frog’s 1985 FZ750 Rana concept (pictured after the jump).

I can’t get enough of pictures that capture a specific, hard to define moment; the successful encapsulation of the absolute balls-to-the-wall, life or death commitment that riding a motorbike as fast as possible involves.  We all know. We’ve all been there – even if it’s only a once-in-a-lifetime moment. Maybe (for us mere mortals) it’s that rapidly, yet unexpectedly, tightening left-hand bend with a shitty, mud-covered veneer just at the apex.

Spotted the link to this short film on a Dutch blog. It's beautifully shot/directed and captures GP rider Mike Duff's recovery from a horrific hip and pelvis injury suffered at the Japanese GP which cost him a six month stay in hospital. Watching him push-start makes you wince just imagining the pain he must have been in.
