How much work are you willing to do to make it run? A friend I do business with has an '86 XR500 but the engine needs rebuilt. Seems the rod is broken and it needs new rings. He says he'll let it go for $200 bucks. The other one I knew of has already been sold.

I tried to get hold of Brian today but he had gone to lunch just before I arrived. Left my card but no call yet. I'll see if I can try again tomorrow. I'll get photos when I can see the bike.

Still haven't seen nor heard from Brian. He's the guy with the XR500. Seems like Christmas I saw him last. I don't work with him, I buy supplies from the vendor he works for. I'll keep you posted, but don't hold your breath.
