Yamamoto 500

Every riders Dream Machine...

​

The iconic dual purpose thumper from the 70's that changed the industry and had all other manufacturers questioning their designs.

​

Just like dynamite, small and compact but extremely powerful, makes it a really fun bike for absolutely any terrain. The genius design of a "dry sump" and oil through frame meant the ground clearance was excellent without sacrificing the seat height for vertically challenged riders.

​

The infamous "kick Back" that felt like it compressed your spine or shattered your knee, was a slight drawback, but later models had a beautiful little "TDC" indicator on the head and if the compression release is set correctly, even the wife could kick start this beast.

​

Dare I say, it's perfect?
