Yamaha V Star description

The bike started life as a 1999 Yamaha V-Star 650 Classic. It has now been transformed into the ultimate bobber motorcycle. It has just a hair over 11k miles and has been well maintained. The best thing about a metric bike is that it's super reliable and this thing still rides like the Cruiser it was originally born to be! Where to start... I didn't like the look of the original 16" front wheel so I had a few things changed on the front end to accommodate a 21" Harley Davidson Narrowglide front wheel, tire, and rotor. I had the handlebars, switches, and cables all changed up and/or hidden as well. The bars were changed to WoodCraft brand clip-ons with a Biltwell Whiskey Single Throttle Cable Assembly. The switches were custom relocated to the existing holes on the upper triple tree. I had a custom Biltwell Slimline seat installed. It's got a custom rear fender which started life as a full fender from Blue Collar Bobber. It's also got a side mounted rear light and plate kit by Blue Collar Bobber. The exhaust started life as Cobra Slashcut pipes and were cut down and wrapped to compliment the Bobber look. The engine was completely and professionally overhauled and the cylinder jugs, tank, and rear fender were just freshly painted gloss black. The Carburetors have been gone through and thoroughly cleaned when I did the pipes. The stripes on the headlight in the pictures are only electrical tape and have since been removed. NOTE: Since I originally posted this ad I have purchased a Large Biltwell Bonanza Gang Green Helmet and their Biltwell Moto Black Gloves in Large as well so they are now included in this auction along with EKS Brand Moto Goggles in black. They are nearly new as I have worn them but they were purchased in the beginning of September 13'. I will also throw in the bike cover for this bike as well as a Big Red Motorcycle Jack that was used once to do the front wheel. This bike needs nothing and when you get on it, you feel like a bad ass! This bike is a real headturner as no one seems to know exactly what it is when you go scootin' by. Surprisingly comfortable to ride, even for long periods of time. Don't really need to sell this bike but wouldn't mind a larger down payment towards a home. NO RESERVE! Open to all offers, questions, comments. Let me know and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Thanks in advance.

Max Biaggi loses the plot . . and very nearly his teeth !

Tue, 29 Mar 2011

I’ve just got back from Donington Park and the second round of the World Superbike championship. The racing was exciting, going off without a hitch, and the weather was unseasonably kind, but the meeting will be remembered by those in the fairly close knit WSB paddock for reasons other than the temperature or the race results. It’ll be remembered by most, especially those who witnessed it, as the meeting where Max Biaggi finally lost his already feeble grip on reality.

US Motorcycle Thefts Down 6% in 2011

Tue, 09 Oct 2012

Americans reported 46,667 motorcycle thefts in 2011, a 6% decrease from 49,791 stolen motorcycles in 2010, reports the National Insurance Crime Bureau. Despite the drop in reported thefts, the non-profit organization representing nearly 1100 property and casualty insurance companies says the theft rate still averages out to one motorcycle stolen every 11 minutes in the U.S. The numbers were published in the NICB’s 2011 ForeCAST Report which examined theft reports as well as recoveries.
