More details equally provided past times Daniel: I picked upward this TT500 on a whim for $400, thinking I would plough it into a street version of my SR500 AHRMA race bike. It sat for a few months, until a lensman friend of mine emailed me, yell for if I had whatever interesting projects inwards the works. His 200cc cafe racer was starting to lose its struggle against the tough NYC streets, as well as Remi was looking for a novel ride. I told him most my plans for the TT, as well as he was directly on board. My destination was to plough this crusty 70s dirt wheel into a handsome vintage supermoto, amongst expert suspension, brakes, as well as mucilaginous tires. I completely disassembled the bike, as well as took the engine apart, finding a bent connecting rod. Pretty amazing, considering the wheel all the same ran real strong! The engine was pose dorsum together amongst all novel bearings, novel crank, SR500 caput as well as a higher compression Wiseco piston. I ditched the tired half dozen volt points system, as well as replaced it amongst modern 12v Powerdynamo ignition, along amongst a consummate novel custom wiring harness. The TT picked upward a few to a greater extent than ponies cheers to a Mikuni VM36 carburetor, as well as a Hoos Racing header, mated to a Cone muffler. The intermission was upgraded amongst YSS shocks, as well as adjustable 41mm ZX600 forks. A 4-piston Brembo caliper amongst a 320mm total floating rotor (from a KTM supermoto) halt the lite wheel on a dime. The tires are 18” ContiRoadAttack ii CR, designed for vintage endurance racing. MotoLanna supplied spot as well as the fantastic aluminum swingarm. The speedo is from Motogadget. I wanted the pigment scheme to resemble the classic TT500 design, amongst a slight twist. I made novel vinyl decals for the tank, as well as Polowy Fab&Finish nailed the racy pigment task in ane lawsuit once again - a combination of brushed metallic as well as orangish yellow. Some mightiness state the wheel looks similar a fairly stock machine from a distance, but you'll speedily notice lots of piddling custom details upward close. From the front end fender to the mitt made LED tail light.
