TT500 yamaha for mostly road use
Hello,
After many years hauling various BMW twins around,i recently got a'77 TT500,californian import,which i would like to use mostly on our lovely irish country roads(Mostly Potholes,the odd flat piece,followed by moon-esque craters).It's already got lights,which arent up to much(no battery,so direct from generator,better off with a lit cigarette at low revs),indicators are'nt required,need to fit a speedo drive,cable,clock etc.Also Need to lower the gearing,the rear sprocket is the size of a dinner plate,Does anyone know if a chain and sprocket set for an XT500 is a straight fit?The Bike has a modified(external) oil flow to the cylinder head,Something done to the fork internals,Havent a clue what though.Lastly,does anyone have a good(preferably european based)source of spares/acessories for TT/XT yamahas.Any advice/info is greatly appreciated. Many Thanks, Joe

77 TT500 Yamaha
Hello from Montana USA. I recently bought a 77 TT500 Yamaha as well. I imediately put a 17 tooth countershaft sprocket on it to get some more speed. The front sprocket is the same from the XT to the TT. Great old bike and I am thinking of installing a self powered led type brake light made from a cheap flashlight/torch. What would be nice is to find a SR500 engine for the 12 volt electrics. Bill.
