Yamaha SR500 description

Up for sale is my near mint 1978 Yamaha SR500. I've absolutely loved owning and riding this bike, however I'm moving to the mountains in Utah and it won't get the attention it deserves. 

It has always been garaged and has less than 16,000 miles on it (I have put 1,500 miles on it since I purchased it 2 years ago) and has less than 20 miles since its last service.

Here is a video of a walk around: https://youtu.be/oFYYhUo6o3U

The title is clear, the registration is paid through April 2017 and it comes with the custom vanity plate "SEVNT8". 

I have never had any issues with it and everything runs absolutely great. I just installed a brand new Seat and super bright LED taillight and it comes with the old fender and light (picture included) as well as 2 extra rear fenders. I'm happy to show it to locals or upload any additional pics or videos upon request. 

Note: There are no turn signals or horn installed, however the wiring is there. 

Happy Bidding!

Developing regions, such as Asia and Latin America, which perceive two-wheelers as a basic mode of transportation, are expected to remain the most promising markets for scooters, light motorcycles, and mopeds.
