2008 R1/R6 Forum East Coast Convention |
|
Jul 02, 2008 - 6:38 AM - by admin
|
U.S. 129, better known as The Tail of the Dragon, slithers its way across the North Carolina/Tennessee border like a snake finessing its way around each tooth of an upturned garden rake. The road is a magnet for the both two- and four-wheel performance vehicles, tourists, Sunday drivers, bicyclists and cops. It's also the convergence point for Yamaha enthusiasts attending the annual R1/R6 Forum East Coast Convention.
This past June McCoy Motorsports once again hosted what has become an annual retreat for Yamaha enthusiasts devoted to the tuning fork company's performance-leading R1 and R6 motorcycles. It was, in fact, the sixth consecutive year for the Forum convention with approximately 200 R1 and R6 riders descending on southern Appalachia to attend.
The moto-centric event celebrates two-wheel culture via a week... [Read More]

Laguna Seca 2008 Ama / motoGP Race Weekend July 17th - July 20th 2008
Track info: www.laguna-seca.com
Having been given the chance to attend the 2008 Laguna Seca event hosted by Yamaha last year (2007), I could hardly wait to get off of the 5 hour plane ride this year!
As I sat on the plane chilling with Scott Russell and a few industry friends many things danced through my head like: Would Valentino take Stoner this year? What kind of surgery would THE DOCTOR put on the competition! Would I get a change to hang out with past Yamaha Racing Champions again this year and make some LEGENDARY stories with some RACING legends? These things and much more were running through my mind in my anticipation (Umbrella... [Read More]

Good stuff is always going on at the Jamie James Riding school check it out! > > > > >
The following is from the Jamie James Yamaha Champions Riding School......
Wow! What a great time we had at our June school session. It was a celebrity-filled event beginning with four-time Supersport Champion Tom Kipp as our celebrity instructor. Kent Kunitsugu, Editor of Sport Rider Magazine, attended along with his photographic genius, the one and only Brian J. Nelson. The 2 Xtreem TV crew were there to film Motorcross Champion April Hodges aka "Lil Hodge Podge" as she experienced her first road course on our Yamaha YZF-R6. Top Professional Supercross rider Troy Adams demonstrated that he just naturally has what it takes to ride a motorcycle. After learning the track on our R6, Troy quickly moved up to the YZF-R1. With a bit of coaching and after just a couple of laps behind Scott Russell, Troy roared away and showed us... [Read More]

Yamaha to Auction Colin Edwards' Gear for Charity
Cypress, CA - July 2, 2008- Yamaha Motor Corporation U.S. will once again offer an incredible opportunity to bid for a set of riding gear worn by Colin Edwards at this year's upcoming MotoGP.
