It looks like your '86 VT500C is in stock form. You may need to replace the rear turn signals and reupholster the seat, but these are cosmetic. Does it start?

If you need a new battery, Scorpion now makes a maintenance-free AGM battery for the VT500C, which should last longer than the typical wet cell battery.

There are many VT500C riders on this site so ask any questions. Also visit the VT500 forum for mid-80s magazine reviews, photos, electrical schematics and more.

Looks like you're starting with a pretty good base for your project.

The peeps on this forum are incredibly helpful. But learn to use the search function to get the full benefit of all the combined knowledge avaiable here.

Good luck --- and post pics!

Love the pipes on those bikes! So, what are your plans so far? I know you have some ideas rolling around

 

[Kingshead]

Great looking bike, and the air is just right for drinking.

Nice bike!

Nice find, Should be a good ride once you get it running, Be sure to get new tires though, Even if they look good they could be dry rotted. That front looks like one of the factory tires they used way back then, Had one just like it on my 83 V45 Magna that I had years ago.

I'm jealous of the factory paint! Love my '86.

Nice... my buddy just bought the same bike for $1,200. Bikes are more expensive around here though

Exacty. 1200 for a running bike vs 600 for one that's not. Not comparable really for price

 

[oconeedan]

My goodness, what a deal!!! That won't happen very often!
Now, ride it like you stole it, because you almost did!

Man, that's pretty nice for that price. Looks like it's in good shape.
Little work into it and you'll have a cool little toy.
