Description

Selling my 1985 Yamaha RZ500. I am the firstregisteredowner.This bike was purchased new by JO-CO Motors Yamaha in Overland Park Kansas for one of there employees. They had to pick it up in Canada since the RZ500wasn'tsold in the US. He put 4,450 miles on it before he parked it in 1988. I bought it from him in 2009. He had never titled it. I went thought thenecessarysteps to get a clean MO. title in my name. SoI am the firstregisteredowner. He told me the motor would have to be torn down and inspectedsense ithasn'tbeen started in 21 years.The upper crank bearing sits dry and could seize from not being oiled. I contacted Bill at Wilson Performance an expert with RZ500 and he said the same thing.I took the motor to him on 11/09/2010 and he did a top to bottom rebuild. There was nothing wrong with the motor other than the upper crank bearing. I have receipts for all the work he did. He finished the motor on 8/18/2011. Bill was very helpful getting it dialed in. It start's on the first kick and run's perfect.Now on to the bike:It'sprobablyone of the nicest 500 you'll find. This bike is "unrestored". Nothing has been refinished or repainted.There is no rust in or on the tank. Even the tires are original. It shows 7566 KM which is 4698 miles. I have theoriginal exhaust,Manuals and spare part's.
