I'm currently breaking a 1979 500 - it's definitely a 'for spares only' bike (or what's left of it) 🫤
The motor, brake rotors, calipers and chainguard are already spoken for, but I have other parts available.

First off, here are the forks and yokes, which I'd prefer to sell complete, as seen here. They are 35mm Marzocchi.
The legs obviously need rechroming, but the sliders, yokes etc are complete and undamaged with all lugs, threads etc clean and intact.
I'm asking a very reasonable GBP£200 [reduced from £220 - 18/10/24] plus worldwide shipping at cost.

I also have a pair of original FLAM wheels, which are unique to the 500s. They're both WM3 2.15x18. No visible dings, lever marks, cracks or flat spots, but they do have surface corrosion so ideal for blasting and painting or powder coating. I've left the bearings in situ to keep the bearing spacers in place, but would strongly encourage you to fit new bearings.

I also have an undamaged and complete (but scruffy) frame, swinging arm, sidestand, battery tray, headlamp bowl, wheel spindles and adjusters, plus other small parts.

Please send me a message if you're interested in these or any other parts. I'm in Wiltshire, England.

Good job I've never wanted a 500 Tom or I'd be surrounded by that stuff as well. Come to think of it I do have a 500 front wheel I accidentally acquired some time ago.
 
**UPDATE**

All the small parts are now sold.

Items I have left are:
*wheels (now reduced to a bargain £200),
*forks and yokes (now also reduced to a bargain £200),
*frame (open to offers)

With a starting price of hundred quid, isn’t that the reserve 🤔

OK smart-ass! 🙄😁
It's classed by eBay as a 'No Reserve auction', which means that the items will sell to the highest bidder, irrespective of the amount.
If I had applied a Reserve, then that would need to be met first - so I could have started the auctions at 1 penny with a £100 Reserve, but what's the point?
Wanna buy them??!! 🤔😉

Smart-arse maybe, but aren’t we all from time-to-time??
Although I don’t particularly need another set of 500 wheels or forks I could perhaps find a use for them if no one else wants them, but you would have to let me have the frame. 😁
