Yamaha XT description

I have purchased this XT500 and a XT550 together almost two years ago from a bike collector in an attempt to start my own.  The XT550 is being used daily, while, this 500 is in such pristine shape and so rare (in this condition) that I decided to keep it empty off fluid and covered in the garage.

We love Colin Edwards. Okay, not like that kind of love, but more the “I want to go on a Man-cation with him” kind of way. The man is flat out funny, a guarantee Grade A quote at press conferences and, as he showed in his unexpected podium finish at this year’s British Grand Prix at Silverstone, he’s still fast.
