Yamaha XT500 Scrambler | Purpose Built Moto

Today, we’re sharing a project that’s close to home: turning an old farm XT500 into a custom MX inspired scrambler. Phil’s last visit and his intrigue with our DT400 Scrambler set the wheels in motion for this project. Focusing on a single XT500, we began a comprehensive build, combining classic and modern elements to create something unique. Project Highlights: - Detailed engine rebuild with performance upgrades - Crafting a custom exhaust and fine-tuning the aesthetics - Upgrading wheels and suspension for a modern ride - Handmade fenders and headlight shroud for a personalized touch - Painting in the iconic Yamaha colours to honor its legacy Join us as we take this XT500 from barn to built.
