Yamaha XT description

1 . . . . These YAMAHA 500 SINGLE Cylinder FOUR-Stroke models carried quite a history since the very first ones in 1976. It was the start of several new models in Yamaha's lineup with the Off-Road only version called the TT500 and the Street only version called the SR500. All of them had the same torquey 500 "THUMPER" engine that had such great low end torque when matched up with the two-stroke rivals. This one was a very reliable power plant and reasonable weight conscious for cycles in that era.

This particular vehicle was purchased from the original YAMAHA dealer in Sturgeon Bay and serviced there as well.  It has always been kept inside and prepped for storage early in the fall.  It has had it's recent oil and filter change and tune-up.  The silencer end of the original exhaust muffler was upgraded to a newer style that no longer has a problem with rusting out, but still looks great and sounds original.  All of the rest of the original components are still on this cycle.  I don't have a better way of explaining how nice and trustworthy this cycle really is except to say that you will just have to make it yours and be the happy new owner.  I only decided to sell it due to some health issues; otherwise would have no thoughts of ever selling it.  For any questions please feel free to call (920)495-7686 from 7:00am to 5:00pm.
