G'day forum,

For those of you out there who know a thing or two about quality motorbikes; this is for you. The bike is currently listed on a world famous auction website - (yes forum, I know I cant name the website) - and the clock is ticking. With about 6 days left in the auction, time is of the essence. The ad (taken from the website) is below. Photos are available on the advert. The current price is $5000, but the market will make the final decision on what its worth. If you have any questions, don't message me; just find the advert on the website and ask the seller.

Enjoy.

1990 YAMAHA XTR 750 SUPER TENERE PARIS - DAKAR STYLED SINGLE CYLINDER MOTOR BIKE TRAIL BIKE

They don't get much better than this!

A rare opportunity to purchase a well cared for YAMAHA XTR 750 SUPER TENERE.

Widely regarded by those in the know as being the definitive and most highly respected of all single cylinder big bore trail bikes, this immaculately presented and fully registered bike presents an opportunity for one very lucky and astute bidder to purchase a legendary machine; known for its style as well as its success in the Paris-Dakar race.

This bike belonged to a man who did not take short cuts when it came to lovingly restoring this epic machine; the fastidious restoration ensures that this bike is in extremely good condition and is superbly presented in the 50th Anniversary paint (not original). In recent times it has done very few kilometers (less than 100km in the last 24
months), but is fully kitted up with all the very best that money could buy - including;

Trip computer dash.
Auxiliary socket (perfect for running mounted GPS).
Rear I.Jilgers Race Suspension unit.
Excel Rims, and too many additional extras to mention.

The bike is currently registered in Victoria, Australia.

Make no mistake, this is a hot item and is going to make the winning bidder very happy. Feel free to ask additional questions and I will answer them as best I can, but as the rider of this bike has passed away the best information is gleaned from the photographs.
