I'm selling my '78 SR500. If you don't know about the SR's they're kinda rare, and they're really cool bikes with a big cult following. They made a dirt version with the TT500 and an enduro XT500. The SR's have bigger valves so I think they're a little more powerful. They're really quick for their size and have lots of tourque.
I did a ton of work to this one, the only thing that's stock is the frame, motor, and front forks. I have parts to make a few different versions of this bike for different looks or riding conditions. I ride it on/ off road, and have raced flat track with it. Here is a partial list of the work, custom, and new parts: TX500 rear wheel/ swingarm Modified rear brakes Shaved 10 lbs off the rear frame Knight style tail section with custom seat New shocks Honda CL100 tank, custom mounted, with new cap and petcock New lights, bars, cables, levers, mirror, tach, grips, quick turn throttle XT500 front wheel with custom brake stay New tires New Mikuni carb/ UNI filter New vintage style cloth covered wiring throughout Custom exhaust with modified vintage Superior muffler, has baffles but is still very loud The bike is currently in the scrambler version, but I have lower forks, shocks, a CL400 drum front wheel, another rear wheel,both with vintage flat track style tires (front us new, rear is used). If you want the lower flat track look I can swap them over. The first half of the pix are the scrambler version, and the second is the Tracker version. The only issue with the bike is that the lights went out recently but they came back on and have been working again. I think there must be a loose sure somewhere in the charging system. I rode it all last weekend though and they've been working fine. It might be due for sn oil change also. The bike is very stripped down, and intentionally a little ratty, knowing it will get beat up. It is kick only, and these bikes never came with an electric start. I have a clean title in my name, the bike is registered and insured. I'm located up in Kingston but can deliver to the city or anywhere within 100 miles for $1 a loaded mile. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer but I can drop it off at a shipper, or meet them locally. $500 deposit on PayPal required within 48 hours of the auctions close, the rest due in cash upon pickup, unless other agreements are made. |
