Yamaha XV wanted to buy

**Wired1** · 26th April 2008, 21:28

I'm looking for an XV750 or 1000 as a donor bike for a project I have in mind. Preferably a runner with rego or rego on hold. I have a hankering to build an XV rat bike to run around on, my kids miss my road bikes and all my current bikes are dirt only so don;t count in their eyes! If you know of something that might be suitable for a rebuild PM me please.

Got an 1100 I'm trying to sell.
$4k in pretty good nick, motor runs sweet as and would put a rego and warrent on it before you pick it up.

Too new and I'm a tight bastard but thanks anyway. Didn't you have a few of the older ones or am I thinking of the wrong guy?

Wrong guy. I have a couple older bikes but they aren't the XV.
