I am new to the XT NATION. Recently aquired 2 of them, a 1980 model and a 1978 model. Both run good despite sitting in the desert in Texas U.S.A. for 5 and 12+ years respectively. Am in the slow process of making both of them reliable riders. Already have a possible buyer for the 1980 bike. The 1978 is so complete it will remain mine for a few years. Thanks for the vid, even though l am late in seeing it.

Very nice, did you do any high speed roads e.g. highway? If so, did you modify anything to make it work better ? Im looking to get one but hearing the bike does not great on highway's is holding me back a bit.

@@ChristianMX449 Die sind meistens schrecklich. Man kann nie genau Wissen, was in der Maschine original ist, und was nicht. Wenn man eine originale haben möchte, sollte der Käufer deutlich tiefer in sein Portemonnaie schauen als 40 oder 50 Tausend Euro .... PS: Zum Beispiel werden sehr oft kleinere Teile wie Zahnräder aus dem Getriebe nach produziert, und als echt verkauft usw. Niemals aus dem Ostblock Teile ersteigern.

Hello, I just recently got a 1977 xt500, I actually live north of Austin. But do you know how much these things are worth? Mine doesn't run as of now but it does have compression, it's missing a few thing. Just wondering were I can get parts and stuff at. Thanks.

@mcskatin: Yes - I'd say a good XT500 engine is worth $400. Depends on the number of miles on it of course.
