            I saw a real beauty early this morning... 
            
             A 1986 XT600Z T�N�R� type 1VJ
             Seems to be all original except for the Excel black rims, the original ones would have been some OEM gold rims. http://www.rallye-tenere.net/Stamb_xt_600_z-1VJ.htm           |

             Tidy bike for 20yrs old. I would have the biggest lock I could find leaving it unattended. I wonder if its had some Dave Lambeth treatment, he specialised in the old XT's. I had the pleasure of going to his workshop once & he had 3 XT600's with the small petrol tanks in white & red in various state's of restoration. They looked as though they had just rolled off the production line at Yamaha. Dave was in Surrey or Sussex I think, he used to organise bike expeditions too.

             Lovely Bike but possibly a pain in the Ass to kick start on a cold and frosty morning if it's not set up right....
             or maybe I'm just a wimp.   |

            Even more impressive pal as its on a C reg prefix which would make it 30 years old,confirmed in the title. 
             Lovely looking all the same,with great style.

             Nice bike....I had the very same one back in the day. ...a doddle to kick start when cold...or hot....but in between! , a leg breaker!. You would kick her into life , set off to see the girlfriend, stop at the local shop, and then descend into a bog of sweat trying to get started again.....Steve

             Why not just use the electric start? it was a combo, kick and electric,
             34L/55W 600Z's >85 were kick only, 1VJ's >88 were combo, 3AJ's >90 were just electric |
