Picked this baby up last year and it's been sitting in my shop since then. Been going back and forth on what to do with it. Given that's it's a first year T500, I've settled on a full resto, as close to original as I can do.
Most of the parts are there, but I'll need to track down a side cover and some badges. The crank cases have a crack, so I'll need to get that repaired and there's a bit of surface rust, but most everything looks OK. I'm hoping most of the work just needs to be aesthetic.
Currently working on getting a lost title and clearing out a few bikes in the shop, then I'll get to work. Updates will be slow as I have a lot going on, but I at least wanted to get the thread going.
