Yamaha SR500 Cafe Speed Racer

SR500 Custom Cafe Racer. Speed Racer. Canyon CarverI'm a hot rod builder and have always loved the simplicity and pure fun of a SR500. The bike started out in great shape with super low milage (1. 50 original miles) other than that it was pretty much bone stock. all work was meticulously done. the bike is super light and a blast to ride. always starts first or second kick. jetting is on point. valves an cam chain adjusted. fresh oil. the bike is built solid with excellent fit and finish. it has massive potential. paint it. chrome it or leave it raw an ride the hell out of it. my thought is. it's your toy so you can play with it however you want. thanks for looking and good luckBike / Frame modifications: completely shaved frame. swingarm. all tabs. brackets and center stand mountsadded cafe hoop. electrics tray. seat bracing. tank mountsframe and swingarm powder coated gloss blackfront forks shaved. nbsp;progressive springs. nbsp;new seals and oilcustom fork covers with headlight ears welded on vintage headlight with working speedo and odometer powder coated rims with new michelin pilot activ custom one off through the frame exhaust by randy pipesrear sets by n-r performanceshortened stock rear brake levermikuni 36mm with velocity stack and k&n filternissan adjustable front brake lever. danmoto billet reservoir with window drilled front rotorbillet tachometer block off vintage nos benelli mojave tank with new cap and petcocksfiberglass cafe seat with taillight frenched in. easy 2 screw removalsuper comfortable closed cell seat padding. professional upholstery custom swingarm mini fender / ducati monster donor folding bar end rear view mirror new rear shocks. progressive springnew all balls steering stem bearingsnew front and rear all balls wheel bearingsnew swingarm bushingsrare tarozzi clip-onsbattery eliminator shaved triple tree and clutch lever custom drilled countershaft sprocket covernew rear sprocket custom license plate holder and chain guard. nbsp;license plate bracket option under tail light hoopyamaha emblems shaved on motor mangura style throttlesimple and clean wiring loom with all connectors soldered and shrink wrapeddual oil feeder line to the top of the motorrenthal grips k&n crankcase breathertank. headlight and fork covers are raw metal with a gibbs lubricant coating. your choice of paint it or leave it naked the exhaust is steel so it has to be coated with wd40 now an then to keep it pretty speedo. headlight. taillight and brake light all work properly hidden marine on off switch. nbsp;the bike is set up like a race bike so there's no key. blinkers or horn original speedo included if you want it for referancethis SR has the drum back brake so if you ever wanted to swap to spoke wheels from a new SR400. they'll bolt right up.
