Yamaha Other description

This is my 85 RZ500 I am listing with no reserve. I won't go into details about the history of the 
RZ500 If your looking at this then you know what it is. This bike is a rider not a show bike.
The bodywork although original is not perfect by any means most notably the belly pan which is pretty rough. Scratches here and there slight surface rust nothing major so keep in mind this is not some garage queen. A great 10 footer. I may have a new set of graphics I never wanted to put them on unless the bike was painted. What this bike is however is an excellent running bike that had an engine rebuild with receipts not long ago.
Bike starts on first or second kick and has a new battery. I just rode it to the shop for a thorough going through and will have compression numbers for all cylinders this week. My Mechanic will be able to answer any other questions as well.
These 2 strokes are just a blast to ride. Nothing quite like it.
This bike would be a perfect candidate for a full restoration as everything is all there 
and like i said the bike runs fantastic and has built in heated seats:)))  
I want to start selling off some of my collection of bikes so look for more bikes to come very soon. Some are riders and some are Museum quality. I can send more pictures and video of the bike running to anyone who is seriously interested. It is currently registered and has a valid Maryland title. Shipping is buyers responsibility

Milan Show: Moto2 tried and tested

Tue, 02 Nov 2010

The insanity of Moto2 doesn't seem like the right home for the elegance of the Rizoma brand. But the Rizoma ProGuard system has helped secure the levers of Toni Elias on his road to championship success in the inaugural Moto2 season. The example above was on an attractive Rizoma-enhanced BMW S1000RR, but the lever guards are not limited to sports bikes, they were also visible on Yamaha's FZ8.  The patented design can tilt up to 10 degrees providing full lever coverage and can be added by simply replacing the bike's existing bar-ends.
