    Plus, I guess looking at the history on car jam may help? Perhaps also, the speedo broke and it is a replacement...?

    BUT.....

    If I was selling this, to make it more attractive and proove to all of us non believers (incl me here) that all was good, surely you would take some better, closer photos?
    Wheels, engine casing, swing arm etc?

    Yes I agree but what made me wonder about it was its a 13 year old bike with under 500km on it so makes you think it can't be true.

    I think the miles are genuine as the bike is being sold as part of a deceased estate, the bike had been under wraps for 8 years and belonged to someone who scored it through the bike industry and never actually used it apart from on his property a few times and perhaps to the shops.

    My only concern was in regard to the problems that come from lack of use only.

    In 1976, I could not bring myself to part with my money for this model. It was so damn ugly.

    I wanted the awesome silver and blue XL350, which to me was the most beautiful bike on earth.
    But it was no longer available.

    Luckily, a few months later I fell in love with the new Yamaha XT500C brochure, and all thoughts of tiny 350cc
    Hondas vanished. . . . I parted with my money immediately.

    Honda must have executed the designer of that particular XL350, because in 1979 the gorgeous XR500 emerged.
    I bought 2 of these.

    I went from a Yellow & Black (which I thought looked alright) to A 79 XR500 and also bought a second one as well, Small World

    What are you saying - that because you have posted nearly 1500 times that your opinions are more valid than someone who has posted 50? Get a grip.
