Description
YYamaha XT500. The XT was never really at home in the dirt, so it definitely qualifies as a street-legal motorcycle. And what a motorcycle! Everything about this bike was absolutely spot-on. That thumper may well be the best dual-purpose single cylinder four stroke in history. The big number tag side covers passed on the illusion that you could actually wrestle this behemoth around a motocross track but it was just an illusion. There's absolutely no doubt that a modern WR450F would eat it for lunch off-road, but that wasn't the idea behind the XT500. It was a commuter that you could take fireroading on the weekends, then pack up and take the summer to ride the Highway. And it was so doggone beautiful! please contact us
