Yamaha YZF-R description

03 Yamaha R1 Raven Edition Street Fighter. She was chosen by Yamaha North America as one of ten bikes to compete in the "Custom Showdown" and to be on display at MotoGP Indy 2012. She was also voted "Fighter of the Month" March 2012 on customfighters.com Bike turns heads and is always fun at bike night. I rode it less than a week ago and she starts and runs perfectly. I did notice the front brake pull feels long and it probably needs pads. I always get compliments when I ride it things like "That looks like batman's bike" or "is that a monster?" I usually say something like "no and it has twice the power of a monster" I am the second owner of the bike and bought it stock and is currently registered in Florida. Highlights are: Custom sub-frame Custom all aluminum tail Custom saddle Custom Triple with Vrod Night Rod headlight Toggle ignition(lock cylinder and key switch deleted) External wiring moved inboard Short exhaust with internal glass wrapped drag baffle Semigloss black paint job Aluminum coolant catch can Custom water-jetted LED tail lights(no turn signals) Shorty style adjustable clutch and brake levers Misc parts anodized black(rear set brackets, etc) Titanium header So that's the good. The bad: No key or lock cylinder, bike uses a toggle switch. Not set up to carry passenger. Paint has normal signs of use with misc scuffs/marks but no dents or dings. Tires are 100% worn and will need replacement. Please feel free to ask questions or if you'd like specific photos. Buyer is responsible for all shipping/packaging, I will not ship but am willing to help drop the bike off at a local(less than 30 miles from 33155) freight forwarder. I have the title in hand and will include it with the bike.

This picture of me chasing Foggy on the Daytona banking in 1991 brought back some bitter sweet memories recently. I did half a season as his team mate on the Silkolene RC30s before scurrying off to Japan to ride a factory Yamaha Superbike. I’ve never been a quitter but I felt the team that year was gear stretched running two riders so it was a case of last in first out.

Cardboard Yamaha R1

Tue, 01 May 2012

I'm partial to a bit of origami and have been frustratingly screwing up paper trying to master Yamaha's paper craft series for a while now. Jack Chen from Australia has not only made a mockery of my model making failures, but he also made this version which is 40% smaller than a full-size Yamaha YZF-R1, out of cardboard.
