Yamaha tested at Willow Springs Wednesday with both the Yamaha factory Superbike team and the Graves Motorsports team participating. The primary purpose of the day at Willow Springs was to shoot Yamaha publicity photos for the coming season.

Anthony Gobert rode his YZF-R7 Superbike while Aaron Gobert rode a YZF-R6 Supersport machine and Damon Buckmaster rode a YZF-R1 Formula Xtreme racebike.

Anthony Gobert was finished riding his machine before lunch. After lunch, roadracingworld.com’s Chris Ulrich took over the controls of Gobert’s Superbike for a magazine story.

At post time, Tony Romo and Jefferson Burkes were changing the swingarm pivot location in preparation for Ulrich’s fourth session on the bike.

Stay tuned.
