This year is also the 40th anniversary of the Yamaha SR500! I found mine four years ago in Vermont, USA as a tatty but complete runner and have restored it in stages since then: a bare-frame stripdown and top-end rework in 2015, followed by the tank and side-panels respray the following year.

I have ridden it 12,000 miles since acquiring it and will rack up plenty more!
