Description

1985 Yamaha RZ500 / RD500 YPVS V4 - 2 Stroke Only 3708 KM - 2200 Miles.
I am selling this highly collectible 1985 Yamaha RZ500/RD500 YPVS V4 2-Stroke Classic. It is an excellent running, all-original bike with ONLY 2200 miles (3700 kilometers). It is complete, as delivered from the factory in 1985 and it needs nothing.
This is a supreme example of Yamaha's last hoorah of 2 stroke superbikes built for production in the mid '80's. This is all-original, non restored screamer was last last ridden circa 1992/93. For the past 35 years it has been moth balled and on display in a private collection. It has been well preserved and recently fully serviced with all fluids changed (transmission oil, brake fluid front and rear, and coolant), along with an intricate and thorough carb clean, fuel lines replaced, and fresh Bridgestones mounted and balanced front and rear. Runs great, idles, revs beautifully emitting that unique Gran Prix shrieking exhaust tone of two stroke exotica.
This is a Canadian spec bike imported to USA by its original owner in 1985. I am second owner since new and have owned the bike for over 4 decades (I purchased in 1987). This bike has only 3700 kilometers - 2200 miles.
Brand new, freshly mounted and balanced Brigestone Battlax BT45/46 bias play tires. 120/80/16 front and 140/70/18 rear. The gold and silver OEM two tone powder coated wheels are true, straight and blemish free. Front and rear brakes have firm, solid lever pressure, and wheels spin free with no drag. No fluid leaks. All painted and powder coated surfaces and fasteners are clean, as delivered from factory, and free of any corrosion or discoloring.
Steering is smooth and linear with no notchiness, bearing clunk, or cable/wiring restrictions. Throttle action is smooth, crisp and self closing. Clutch lever action is equally as smooth. All switches, lighting, and gauges are fully functional. 2 stroke oil injection system is fully functional. Acceleration from idle to redline is smooth, steady, and hella exhilarating.
This bike has no fluid leaks whatsoever. Fork seals dry and clean, and suspension is fully functional with no squeaks or creaking. Fuel tank interior is clean and rust free. This bike has virtually flawless OEM plastic cowlings. Its paint has had no repairs or spot fixes. Yamahas of this era are well known for their brittle and aged cowling plastics that suffer from spider web cracks and broken mounted tabs but this indoor climate controlled stored superbike has all of its mounting tabs and factory grommets in place and unmolested.
The OEM paint and graphics are non restored and are in excellent condition. There are a few pecks and imperfections that can be found when examined for concourse presentation, but overall this machine shows as a 9.5/10. There are some scuffs on right expansion chamber and a blemish on rt rear corner of belly pan. I have both mirrors and both front turn signals. Original OEM Lexan windscreen is optically clear and blemish free.
Bike is currently prepared for global shipping with no fuel or battery. I am including a brand new Yuasa battery, but it will need to be serviced with electrolyte
Also included in this sale is a Kenny Roberts limited edition Shoei GRV signature graphic helmet size medium. I am also including two OEM factory Yamaha Kenny Roberts signature decals (which were featured on certain model RZ350's) as extras. Some folks back in the day added these decals to their RZ500/RD500's…
Has OEM factory, black plastic Yamaha Key. Ignition switch, gas cap and seat lock are matching and functional.
Clear Alabama title in hand. Yamaha factory Shop Manual is included.
It is missing the black plastic chain guard.
