Seller description

Up for sale a 1976 YAMAHA TT500. The first year of the TT era
 
I was planning to keep this bike forever, but I already have a few TTs in my collection and I need to make room for a new toy.
This is an all original low hrs bike.
I bought this bike for the original owner in northern GA about 6 years ago. 
The bike was sitting in a garage for years, even the front tire was original.
The motor starts first kick, idles, and runs with no issues, no noises and shift with no issues. Everything is original and the motor has full compression.
This is a true survivor and this is a very hard to find bike. The price of these bikes is going up every year, it’s better than money in the bank and you get to own a TT.
Don’t let this one go if you are looking for a TT. 
Comes with the OEM spark arrestor and OEM headlight and taillight kit. 
The bike comes with a bill of sale and a Vermont registration that can be transferred to your name, depends on your state. VT doesn’t issue titles for vintage bikes.
