Yamaha XT500C 1976

SuperMoto

Model History


Yamaha were credited by many with the re-invention of the big single when they introduced the TT500 in 1975, following it with the release of the road equipped XT500. Both models came about as a result of a request made by Yamaha US who believed that there was a market for a machine capable of covering the great open spaces of the States in a manner not addressed by the then available two-strokes. Built to be rugged, reliable and handsome the TT and XT500's proved an instant success in both the States and Europe. Although not intended for competition use both variants of Yamaha's new four stroke trail bike quickly found themselves being used on the track and in enduros. In recent years the XT has been in the vanguard of the rise in interest in classic trail bikes with a number of specialists catering for them.

Bike History


This bike has been developed by the Uk’s leading Yamaha XT Engine Builders.  The company owner has his work and bikes documented and featured in most motorcycle magazines.  “Dave's hand built XT500 Supermoto's were hugley popular & highly desirable machine's”


This bike was restored and converted in 2007 and featured as a phase 2 supermoto build, featuring as one of the companies flagship conversions, only the best will do!


Modifications from the standard specification include the replacement of the standard wheels with smaller rims allowing the use of modern, sticky, road tyres, upside down forks and disc brakes front and rear.

It is presented to an exceptional standard throughout having seen little use since entering the private collection from which it is now being offered.
