I love my XT500, on 17s its a tiny bike. Its only a bit bigger than a DT50 and has almost 40bhp. Great to mod as well. Are you looking to do a standard or modded one? This is mine, shown here lots before and if my website is still up the build is written up on there... lots of mods:  Its one of those bike that every time I pull the cover off it in the garage I smile to myself. Fun build too, lost of parts available just like the LC etc. Good luck with the project Ash. |

 SR500 at Park Bend by Dave Boothroyd, on Flickr I used to race this SR500 in the Single cylinder class, but when all the Tigcraft 660s came it it was not competitive any more, so it went to the back of the garage for ten years. Then I started thinking that I'd always wanted a Manx Norton, so I made my own. Like this.... This was taken at the Last Northwich Thundersprint. I sold it to a man who had a real Manx, but it a real Manx is worth too much to actually ride on the track!  Yam at Northwich by Dave Boothroyd, on Flickr |

Good things come to those that wait.
Or if you don't wait you end up with a barn find and a world of pain.
