I recently moved to Sydney, Australia and would like to buy a XT 500. Has anyone an idea how to manage that best?

Good day Sydney,
bit difficult to figure out where to buy a XT500 in Australia if you are located in Germany
I assume that you know the "usual suspects", i.e. eBay etc. by yourself. Maybe the SR500-Club of Australia can be of help (SR500 is the street version of the XT500) . Their office is located in Victoria, but I bet that there are also some members in your area. Their homepage is located at:
http://www.sr500club.org/
cheers,
P.

hi sydney,
it´s a pity but the chances are quite small to get one in australia.
when i was there i also wanted to buy one, and after looking for it for a while i got to know that the 500 was only imported 4 years, when 1981 the 550 model entered the market they stopped importing the 500 model, so there are only a few which ever reached the oz.
nevertheless, try the different motocycle wreckers, i finally bought a 550 model in melbourne, like i didn´t have that much time.
that´s some years ago, but i guess in sydney, melbourne, adelaide and whereever there will still be a lot of the wrecker guys, take your time and maybe you can get one.
good luck
