Yamaha Under the Spotlight at Bike-a-Palooza Saturday [VIDEO]

Motorcycle fever is in the air. Temps are going to warm up again this weekend and I'm excited to start another Turbo Tour. Yamaha is under the spolight as we roll into Bike-A-Palooza Saturday at McGrath Powersports.

Last year, I rode quite a few Yamaha models. My favorite was the "Fidger."

I'm a huge fan of those sport touring bikes, but sometimes you just need a straight-ahead sport bike. This 2015 Yamaha YZF-R1 just flat-out smokes. Here's the quote of the video: "It doesn't have that crazy, insane top-end." It'll take you on a crazy ride, though. That much I can guarantee.

My 5th Turbo Tour will commence Saturday at our live broadcast from 11-1. Stop by for lunch and ride over to Powersports for a bike wash from the Titan Dolls. The Bike Nights will start later this month. It's easy to remember those dates: Last Thursday in the months of May, June, July and August. Drive safely. We'll see you out on the road.
