Yamaha XT500 1981 - Review

Short film about Yamaha's iconic XT500, affectionately known as the 'Thumper' - a Hoxton Moto restoration.
Ross Doherty presents his take on a 1981 version of the XT, with a bit of nostalgic bias.
XT's were built between 1975 and 1989, they all had a 499cc single cylinder, twin valve, overhead cam engine. Designed as a dual-sport machine for on and off road use.
The XT's had huge success in the African rallies, most notably the Paris - Dakar event.
The 1981 version was famously used in one of the Bond films 'For Your Eyes Only', starring Roger Moore.
