Yet another one of diggers P.O.S.s

[DIGGER DOG]

aint this a real beuty 76 TT 500 (yet another resto proj.i havent got to)

[J.D.]

What's wrong with that dude? Looks sweet!

[DIGGER DOG]

Well it smokes like a freight train ,needs rebuilt ,era white bro's exhaust that needs to welded back togther,I need to get another frame so I can cut off and weld on to this one the rear fender mount,Gas cap has male threads its real trick its billit aluminum lol stripped threads on cap and tank so I need a new 76 tt gas tank very rare and very $$$$ ,the swing arm is off a newer model a little bit lighter it needs bearings ,carb is shot,I have also lost spark but havent tested coil yet,runs on points and condenser a real pain in the arse .bought off e-gay fer 600.00 and got ripped off ,got out bid on a 76 TT 500 that was mint on friday ,this is basicly a good parts bike but when i had it running it was awsome mega tourque also couldent get much traction as it was previously rebuilt so if i ever tear into it i have to figure out what it was bored to and figure out what cam was put in .

[J.D.]

Oh I see....sounds like fun.

[FullBore]

It looks nice in the photo! now you've shattered all our illusions!

[NOS_350X]

looks like a fun bike to play around on when you get it all done

[DIGGER DOG]

It is a fun bike ,a little on the heavy side ,dont know when ill ever get to it im working on a 84 ytm 200 EL for my father in law,got a 85 350 X that needs attention,and the 83 200 x constantly needs attention,Im thinking about just buying a 250sx or later model big red for father in law so i can quit working on the ytm its junk ,as far as 350 x and the ole TT thinking of buying one of each and using what i got for parts. other than that I love the old TTsand XTs tourque monsters just roll the throttle and the front end stands right up .

I remember those beasts well. Back in the day, they were the best hillclimber you could find. Probably still are!

[BLAZERONE22]

I used to have one when I was 13. up and down the dirt road we used to live on. Neighbors were glad when I graduated and left home. good times! good times!

[DIGGER DOG]

yea back in the day i wanted one but could never afford it now ive got it and dont have time to fix it up ,they still use these and the XTs for flat tracking of course they use different frames w/different rakes etc...
but they are still winners run up against rotax powered bikes and win I know a guy that lives not far from where i work hes got a few of these things wont come off any of them especially the motors but stock frames etc.. I can get from him.

[Jeb]

Ahh, the ol' TTs!

I guess I should dig my 78 DT 175 out of the barn and get a pic of it.

[Ace Mon]

I used to have an XT 500 which is basicly the same thing . Torque galore !

[mymint87]

POS?....too funny...dog you are a STUD....look closely...mine's ALL "white bros" mod even had a leather pouch on the tank and an extra masterlink zip tied to the throttle cable when i bought it

[DIGGER DOG]

ok fellas check this out got another TT500 its a 78 hehehe the 76 is now the 78s parts bike this bike is vintage race ready all it needs to back to original is the exhaust its running a supertrapp now ,a 78 gas tank it has a 77 on it now and of course the yellow fenders and side covers,color scheme on 78 TTs are yellow on top of gas tank sides of tank are brushed aluminum,yellow fenders and side covers.
coincidently . both of these bikes are for sale /trade for a 85 or 86 350x in the same condition of the 78 TT both bikes for the X the 78 runs flawlessly no smoke fires up first or second kick recent rebuild to stock specs. or $2000.00
