Alex Snoop, Ossa parts and service available.
Phone number: US (845)783-3557. I was an OSSA Dealer from 1969 to 1981. I live in Monroe, N.Y. I have complete engine service available and a lot of parts. I did some Flat Track racing for a while. When I quit racing , I was looking for something to do to keep busy so I started to work on OSSA's again. I'm having a lot of fun and doing a lot of trail riding.
Alex sold some Yankee's and owned one of his own "back in the day." He also went to the Yankee service school at the factory in Schenectady. He will be instrumental in making the Yankee Reunion happen. THANKS Alex, couldn't do it without ya!

The site belongs to Steve Levi, an employee of Yankee Motorcycles. He will also be instrumental in making the Reunion happen, and has agreed to give a seminar (or two) on the Yankee engine, disassembly, assembly, and tuning tips. After all, a Yankee is exactly the same as two Ossa's, except that it's totally different !
Say hello to Charlie Vincent of Sunnyside Farm in Warren, ME. Attached is a picture Charlie took of himself with his Yankee Z. Charlie was a member of the Yankee ISDT team which competed in Czechoslovakia in 1972. The Yankee in the picture is in the same condition it was in after the race. It has NOT been restored. One of the special events planned for the Reunion is reuniting the three original members of the 1972 Yankee ISDT team. Charlie and Barry Higgins have agreed to attend, and Charlie will have his bike there. We're working on getting Dave Eames to attend. Bob Hicks who was also part of the experience and reported on it in Trail Rider magazine will do a presentation on it. We want to do an interview and have Jay record it as part of the video. Don't miss it. (Team photo courtesy of Bob Hicks.)
