Wanted: Yamaha XT500, 550, 600 or similar

[Bill Badger]

I'm looking for a mint XT500 for the same price that I paid for my last one 20 years ago - £800...... However, on the slim chance that I don't get offered one, I'll be interested in something very similar. It doesn't have to be a Yamaha, and so if you have a decent XL, XR, KL or BMW F650, please let me know.

I don't mind a bit of work, and if it isn't currently on the road I am able to collect. However, I'm not really after a candidate for a full restoration.

I will purchase outright, but if you are interested in my super XLR200 as part of a deal, then maybe we can sort something out.

I am in the Vintage Japanese Motorcycle Club, and the XLR 200 isn't ideal for the sort of club runs that I need to use it for, hence my need for something a little bigger. It is, however, a super bike for a bit of green laning.
