Yamaha XT600Z Tenere (3AJ) 1989 in Cape Town, SA for sale.

Bought in France whilst I was living there, and then registered in England with about 22,000 km’s on the clock several months later. This bike then took me on an 18,000km trip with not one single mechanical failure. (Total mileage, roughly 40,000km’s.)
2 owners from new. Service history stretching back 5 years. Great all-round condition, just fully serviced.

I will list below its features and modifications:
Standard Tenere features:
  • 24 litre tank
  • Twin fuel taps
  • Brake disc protector
  • Adjustable front and rear suspension
  • DID rims and spokes
  • Alloy engine protector
  • Flip-up motocross pegs
Service just completed (with receipts):
  • Rear brake pads
  • Brake fluid
  • Air filter and filter oil
  • Brake and clutch levers
  • Clutch cable
  • Oil, filter and O-rings
  • Petrol filters
Nearly new:
  • Bridgestone gritty knobbly (rear) (2000km’s)
  • DID X-ring chain (4000km’s)
  • Renthal hard-coated front sprocket (4000km’s)
  • Yamaha rear sprocket (4000km’s)
Tour Modifications:
  • Professionally fabricated steel pannier rack with 8 mounting points based around Touratech hoops and box mountings (so can be used with Touratech boxes).
  • 2 X 40 litre aluminium pannier boxes with lockable clasps and 2 X 5 litre jerry cans mountings including jerry cans. (Keeps the weight forward and low.)
  • Barkbusters Ego aluminium hand guards with plastic wind protectors.
  • Renthal high rise bars
  • Large side stand sand plate.
Spares:
  • 3 X inner tubes, (1 X Front heavy duty Continental inner tube (3mm thick), 1 X Rear Heavy duty Continental inner tube, 1 X Standard rear inner tube)
  • New throttle cable.
  • Old clutch cable.
  • Old front sprocket (still in good cond.)
  • 2 X brake levers.
  • 1 X old air filter and spark plug (OK for emergencies)
  • Spare brake bulb
I bought the bike for well over GBP 2000 (30,000 Rand) and the mods cost a heap, so I would like roughly GBP 1750 (25,000 Rand) for the bike.
The bike will also need to be registered in SA for me to get my carnet deposit back and I would prefer to be paid in Euros or pounds if possible.
I will be in CT from 29th of April until the bike is sold. Contact me (Ed) anytime on 0728953958.
