I am selling my 1981 Honda XL500. I bought it a year ago as a project bike but have no time. The bike runs great after 2 kicks and still has tons of power. Fun to rip around town or take off road. Street legal with working front and back lights (Needs turn signal bulbs). Drum brakes need replacing but work well. Original odometer read 6330 when I got it, I most likely put 50 miles on it if that. Recently cleaned the carbs and starts without choke. Some cool features is the rare 23 inch front wheel, neutral light indicator, and the decompression release. Comes with scratch plate, back rack, and leather seat strap. A classic bike that runs great, come check it out.
