YOU ARE BIDDING ON A 1983 XR 500, GOOD CONDITION FOR THE YEAR. RUNS BUT NEEDS CARBS CLEAN, AND SEEPS OIL OUT OF TOP END ABOVE TOP OF CYLINDER HEAD WHEN RUNNING, I WOULD IMAGINE THAT IT NEEDS NEW TOP END SEALS. HAS TONS OF COMPRESSION, TRANSMISSION SHIFTS SMOOTH. WIRING HARNESS MELTED UNDER SEAT SO THE HEAD LIGHT AND TAILLIGHT NEEDS REWIRED. COMES WITH AN EXTRA SET OF DUNLOP TRAILMAX TIRES, STILL HAVE THE NIPPLES ON THEM. IF YOU LOOK IN THE PICTURES YOU CAN SEE WHERE THE OIL RAN DOWN ON TO THE CYLINDER HEAD. VERY GOOD CONDITION FOR THE YEAR, COME WITH BILL OF SALE. ONCE YOU CHANGE TIRES AND REWIRE HEADLIGHT AND TAILLIGHT YOU CAN APPLY FOR A TITLE AND MAKE THIS STREET LEGAL. I WOULD GUESS THAT A $200.00 INVESTMENT PLUS YOUR TIME WOULD MAKE THIS A VERY NICE BIKE. SUSPENSION FEELS GREAT. I PURCHASED THIS A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO WITH BIG INTENSIONS AND LITTLE AMBITION. I AM THE SECOND OWNER AND FROM THE LOOKS OF THIS BIKE THE ORIGINAL OWNER LET IT SET IN A BARN MOST OF ITS LIFE. I AM SETTING A LOW RESERVE ON THIS BIKE TO MOVE IT OUT OF MY GARAGE. I CURRENTLY RIDE IT ONCE IN AWHILE IN THE FIELD NEXT TO MY HOUSE AND IT RUNS GOOD, IT WOULD RUN REALLY GOOD IT THE CARBS WERE CLEANED.
