XR 500 1984 n°127

We finish restoring this Honda XR600R on June 2021, everything controlled and repaired or changed !

Exceptional and rare XR500R model 1982 in perfect conditionThe original engine has been revised and works perfectly.
This bike has hardly been driven as proof, it still has the original Honda handlebars with a pronounced rear hanger typical of US Baja style motorcycles.
We imported this XR500 from Calgary to France by plane. Then go to UK to obtain a road registration and she came back to France to ride with a special collection registration V5.
This XR was delivered to a private museum
