1976 Yamaha TT500 - Tom White's Museum

For this first episode of Tom White's Museum we take a look at his 1976 Yamaha TT500. This bike was known as being a "kit bike" as many would buy this model and change it to a more specific skill set or niche in motorcycle racing. The TT500 was a home run for Yamaha. In addition to the TT and XT500, Yamaha introduced the SR500?a street bike that was produced from 1978 to 1982. Yamaha reintroduced the SR500 as a 400 in Japan in 1994 and sold thousands. Yamaha’s biggest four-stroke success, the YZ400, would come along in 1998 and change motocross as we knew it.
