Hey here are the pictures of the Baby I took for you today.

Can anyone can say exaclty what model this is? A local XV specialist shop told me it was a XV750SE. When I found the users manual for that bike I knew it couldn't be this bike. Another guy who claimed to know lots about XV's told me it was an XV750Euro built in Holland. But the parts people look at me like this when I say this model  Huh  I need some parts soon and cannot order anything until I know exactly the model. I don't even know fork oil quantities and fork air pressure...which is importand because the handle bars rattle side to side quite violently if I ride with 'loose hands' on the handlebars. Maybe it is an XV750 ? No Euro, No SE, nothing else but XV750.





The white appearance of the chrome parts - this is waxoyl that came out the canister too thick, even on a hot summers day in the UK. It keeps the bike from rusting but looks like spray on Christmas snow!!  embarrassed

Hi,

You're kidding? There must be a serial number. You find it at the front part of the frame, just between the steering bearings.
This bike looks like an early XV 1000, Type 5A8, build in 1981, no matter where or when it was sold or registrated.

Cheers,

Stefan

The engine also should have a number on the right upper  side of the engine housing.  That number should start with the type number of the modell, for example "5A8" for a TR1 built in 1981. Your bike looks exactly like an 81 TR1, but perhaps there was also a 750er with the same look?

Bye,
Georg

Hi, sorry I have not been here. I had no email notifications of replies.

I have a surprise for some of you who say it is a TR1. On my documents it definately says 749cc and also on the barrels of the bike.

So I eventually had to phone Customer Services at Yamaha UK and give them the frame number for them to search ( I didn't know this was possible  Roll Eyes).  And it is an XV750E Japanese model of 1983.

Ho ho I was looking through microfiches on ebay and Yamaha also have a XV750E model around 1993 so that will be an area for confusion at the spare parts shop!

Popeye: Yes it was  Grin
