Yamaha Other description

Very Nice bike built myself. Runs and drives well, fast! Everything works as it should. The only negatives: the gas tank fell off my work bench and got dented in three places (I have another set of replacement decals to go with the bike), the paint on the oil tank is bubbled on top (not very noticeable), and the rear tang on the engine case broke off when the CS let go on me. I fixed the CS but the tang is still off (I have it if you want to have it rewelded, many racers actually cut them off for fast chain changes)

Now to the goodies.

Not the most sensible of commuters..

Wed, 04 Apr 2012

This is the white and gold 2012 Yamaha R1. It's also the bike I shall be commuting on for the next 8 months. The crouched riding position and murderous amounts of power may not be ideally suited for the London grind, but with plenty of track action planned I have to make some compromises. There are three fresh colours to choose from.

Air time Kenny Roberts-style

Thu, 25 Nov 2010

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.
