Yamaha XT 500 from 1981

in motorbike •  7 years ago 

Just a little picture of my restored Yamaha XT 500.
She was already in Marokko and I bought her 2 years ago with 79000 km.
Last summer I restored her as far as I had to, to get TUV and ride :)
Now I had a beautiful summer and am completely restoring the motor at the moment.

Hope you like her!IMG_20170409_164414338.jpg

This war machine never dies. You can ride day and night and all year round.

you can go through hell with her !

What a timeless machine that is...look after her 😃

Well.. the motor broke last summer.. :D
To my defense:
She had already 79k km and was several times in Marokko^^

As said, I'm rebuilding the motor atm. At the end she will have around 41whp ;)
greets!

Yes, but the XT 500 is a classic. Something of a collector's item.

Definetely. When you talk from the price.
For me and a whole community the xt exists to be ridden^^
That's why I'm rebuilding the motor. I can make the cylinder bigger 4 additional times, which equals around 200k km hard enduro :3
