1973 YAMAHA TX 500 IN BEAUTIFUL CONDITION!

ONLY 7600 ORIGINAL MILES!

BEAUTIFUL IN ORIGINAL "BIRD BLUE"

THIS BIKE HAS BEEN IN HEATED STORAGE IN A PRIVATE COLLECTION FOR THE LAST 8 YEARS, I RECENTLY REMOVED AND CLEANED THE CARBS AND TOOK IT FOR A SHORT RIDE.  THE BIKE RUNS WELL-- BUT WILL NEED A LITTLE MORE "FETTLING" TO GET IT GOOD AND RIGHT.  THE CLUTCH NEEDS AN ADJUSTMENT, CARBS COULD USE A TUNING, AND BOTH SPEEDO AND TACH GAUGES ARE "SLUGGISH".  NOTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY FOR A BIKE SITTING THIS LONG - BUT I NEED TO MENTION IT. 
THIS IS A VERY, VERY NICE, HARD TO FIND BIKE! 
FUN AND PRETTY MACHINE THAT YOU CAN ACTUALLY RIDE ALL DAY IF YOU WISH.
YOU WILL LOOK LONG AND HARD TO FIND ANOTHER ANY NICER.
100 PERCENT ORIGINAL FRONT TO BACK!

AUCTION STARTS AT $300, WITH A LOW RESERVE FOR A BIKE THIS NICE.  I AM SELLING OFF THE LAST OF MY OLD BIKES AS MY EYES ARE GETTING BAD AND IT IS GETTING HARD TO DO THE DETAIL STUFF.  WINNING BIDDER MUST PUT $200 DOWN BY PAYPAL IMMEDIATELY AT AUCTIONS END PLEASE.   THE REMAINDER AS DECIDED BETWEEN US BUT NOT THRU PAYPAL UNLESS BUYER PAYS THE FEES.   I AM WILLING TO DELIVER UP TO 400 MILES FOR FUEL AND  COSTS.   MY TRUCK GETS 17 MPG, I USE CHEAP MOTELS.  BIKE IS SOLD AS IS WHERE IS WITH NO WARRANTIES.  IT COMES WITH A BILL OF SALE AND THE FORMER OWNERS NAME AND ADDRESS.  MAKE SURE YOU CAN TITLE IT IN YOUR STATE.  THIS IS GETTING EASIER ALL THE TIME ON THESE OLD BIKES, BUT CHECK ON IT.

EMAIL ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS!!
LOOK AT THE PICTURES, THEY SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES!
OK, LETS DO THIS - BID HIGH AND WITH RECKLESS ABANDON!!
THANK YOU AND GOOD LUCK BIDDING!!   TOM

Police Catch Up with Motorcycle Doing 185 mph in YouTube Video

Fri, 20 Apr 2012

Authorities in British Columbia, Canada, have impounded a 2006 Yamaha R1 believed to have starred in a YouTube video reaching speeds of 299 kph (185 mph) on a freeway. The onboard video, embedded after the jump, captures the Yamaha weaving through traffic, and often lane-splitting between other vehicles, covering a 4.67 mile stretch of the Trans-Canada Highway in about a minute and 56 seconds. That translates to an average speed of 144.6 mph.
