Title: best TT500 I know of
Post by: Marc.com on December 23, 2011, 07:20:35 am
Its real money but I know this bike, built by a NOS obsessive, if you want one close to built from brand new parts

Are we talking about the bike in the pictures  ??? Built from brand new parts  ??? maybe a bit of NOS on it but its hardly built from NOS parts  ::)

Would love a peek at those chrome inner tubes  ;D

Its a nice example but a long way from built from NOS  ;) have you started on the sherry early this Xmas Marc  :D

Its a bonus that its registered  :) price wise i wouldn't have a clue but as with anything its worth what sombodys prepared to pay  :)

did the TT 500 in NZ wear lights? in OZ only the XT's did.

Yes, here in NZ the TT came with minimal lights and speedo.

There was an optional lighting kit and an optional speedo kit for the TT - don't know if they were ever imported into Oz, but they were a big sellers in Europe.

They were the speedo and headlight etc off the IT400C all packaged together into a couple of kits.

Euro TT owners still lap them up.

The big ticket items are the speedo kits.  The headlights are a dime a dozen.

One of those speedo kits (NOS) sold on eBay about 6 months ago for around US$600.  (that's just for a speeod, speedo drive, cable, and mounting brackets)

Which is probably quite a bit less these days, seems like TT500 values have taken the slide along with everything else. ::)
