1979 TT500 Yamaha

I am selling my 1979 TT500 vintage racer due to financial concerns. It’s the one I won a national 4-stroke. 9 inch travel vintage class championship on so it has some emotional ties for me. It’s also a great trail bike. will pretty much thump up anything. and is low enough to be a lot fun. Plus. it dirt tracks fire roads like nobodies business! it has about $8K in it. but I will let it go to the highest bid. Some information about it: 1979 frame. polished and nickel plated. 1979 engine. freshly built by Bruce Sass. only started once since. 10. 5:1 piston. 38mm Mikuni carb. ported and polished. stock cam and valves. "Flow" pipe and muffler. best for all over power. 1979 YZ400 front end. fresh seals. 9 inch+ travel. valved and sprung by Bruce Sass. Performance shocks. (one spare) Suspension set for a 180 pound expert racer. Swingarm custom made by combining a Pro Fab front with a Suzuki RM370 rear. 9 inch travel. very stout and trick. Wont crack again like the Profabs do. YZ450 fenders. New stock tank. freshly painted. YZ450 clutch perch and lever. Magura ? turn throttle and front brake perch. XT500 front brake (bigger and better than TT’s were). Acerbis chain guide. New Michelin Starcrosser tires. Expert 4X9 national vintage motocross class winner. and built by a pro. One small tear in otherwise good seat cover. See pics!
