1985 Yamaha YZ 490

This collector quality YZ was completely restored over 15 years ago when parts were still available for it and it has been sitting in my living room with zero hours on it ever since that time. I have saved all receipts for parts bought and mechanical work done. The receipts for all mechanical work and parts add up to well over $ 4.800. This bike has never been started since being restored.

The engine parts include crank, Connecting Rod, Pin, Piston, Piston, rings, associated bearings and re sleeved cylinder. Other parts include clutch plates friction plates and springs. 

The clutch basket and transmission gears were found to be in perfect condition.

Carburetor rebuilt and jetted to OEM specks

Forks are rebuilt with seals replaced.



Rear shock bearing dust seal,oil seal replaced and bump stop replaced.

Wheels bearings replaced

Breaks rear resurfaced springs and shoes are replaced

Breaks front Caliper Seal Kit and pads replaced.

Swing arm and linkage bearings replaced.



Other all metal parts such as bolts and spokes are re zinced and or are new. All  other cosmetics see pics, any serious collector knows. I did not save receipts for cosmetic work such as painting.

Needs a chain, sparkplug, oil in cases and the counter shaft sprocket needs to be torqued to specification.

Have title in hand serious enquiries only. I will simply not be lowballed on this price because this bike is really worth around 10k with all that went into it and receipts on hand to prove it.
