1977 Yamaha XT500 whose owner died soon after buying it, only has 900 miles on it, and was then carefully stored away for 45 years, only recently being put up for sale on eBay last month

The XT500’s legendary status was solidified when it secured victories in the early years of the grueling Paris-Dakar Rally. In 1979, ridden by Cyril Neveu, the XT500 clinched its first victory. The following year, both Cyril Neveu and German rider Herbert Schek rode XT500s to finish first and second respectively, showcasing the bike’s endurance capabilities.

It was bought at the estate sale, and listed on Ebay for 13,500
