Yamaha Other description

 Up for bid is this really nice Yamaha motorcycle. It is a DT175 Dual Sport Enduro made in 1981. As you can see from the pictures it is in really nice shape! Comes with a clear Michigan title and 2 ignition keys. One original and one remake. This is a nice old Enduro that needs and wants to be ridden. There is only two issues that I am aware of on the bike that will need to be looked at. The first is the rear tire. It seems to be in O.K. condition but does not hold air. I don't know if there is something stuck in it or the stem leaks, I really haven't looked at it closely. The other thing is the carburetor. I installed a new one and now it won't stay running at idle. Seems to run pretty well at speed but something needs adjusted and I don't have the expertise to do it. I have the original carb still and that will go with the bike if that helps any. There is just a small light scuff on one of the side covers but other than that everything looks really clean. Chrome is nice, seat is good, tank is clean, gauges are clear....wow....just really nice yet for a bike this old. You can tell with only 4000 miles that those were easy miles as it was well cared for. I am not an expert on bikes so please as questions and I will answer them as best I can. The bike is located in Findlay, Ohio and will need to be picked up by the new owner. If you want to have it shipped this will be handled completely by the new owner. I will only agree to be here when they pick it up. A $200.00 NON-REFUNDABLE deposit will be due to my paypal account within 48 hours of the auction closing. The remainder due in cash upon pick up of the bike. I will not release the bike or title until paid for in full. There is no guarantee on the bike as it is 35 years old. If you are a collector or someone looking for a fun bike to take on and off the road then look no further. You WON'T be disappointed!

Isle of Man TT 2013: Dainese Superbike Race Results

Mon, 03 Jun 2013

It was delayed by a day but the Isle of Man TT’s Dainese Superbike race finally went underway Sunday. Originally scheduled to open the 2013 Isle of Man TT, the race was pushed back a day because poor weather earlier in the week prevented proper practice and qualifying. Even then, the Superbike race was delayed 45 minutes from its rescheduled start time due to a traffic accident.

Retirement is rife but thankfully not for Vale

Thu, 15 Nov 2012

The racing season may be over but the winter nights will surely fly by as we watch reviews, debate events of 2012 racing and relish the excitement that lays ahead in 2013. Unfortunately retirement seems to be popular right now so with major names leaving BSB, WSB and Moto GP things will never quite be the same. I’m still in shock that Casey Stoner has decided to head back home for a spot of fishing.

Recall for 2011 Yamaha FJR1300

Mon, 11 Jul 2011

Yamaha is initiating a recall campaign the 2011 FJR1300, just a week after a separate recall for the 2006-2009 versions of the sport touring motorcycle. Like the earlier campaign, the recall for the 2011 Yamaha FJR1300 is for an electrical issue,  this time for the brake lights. According to documents released by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, brake light on affected units may not illuminate when the front brake lever is applied because the activating mechanism in the brake switch can bind.
