Facts about the model

Den första XT 500 visades vid den amerikanska återförsäljarkonventionen i september 1975 och i Europa sommaren 1976. Cykeln blev en omedelbar framgång och tillverkades fram till 1981 då den ersattes av fyrventilmotorer. Det beredde väg för det senare utbudet av XT-cyklar från 125 cc ( XT125 ) till nuvarande 660 cc ( Yamaha XT660Z Ténéré ) och bidrog till stor del till Yamahas image. Bara i Frankrike såldes 62 000 XT 500 från 1976 till 1990. [1] [2]

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
