Had a 76 360 back in the day. Nice set up.
This will be a headache as well.
Plan to set it up as a ABC Superbikers type build.
Long term project....Got lucky on the frame as it was my 1st choice.
And am not planning on an HL type build.
Will know more when it gets here.

Am thinking version (1) used 14 1/2 to 16"" shocks. Version (2) 17 1/2" shocks.
Can anyone confirm?

Great photo. I started a DMS page on FB as there is so little info available.
Feel free to stop by. "Dick Mann frames DMS Yamaha XT / TT500"
Just shared the photo.

Our local Yamaha dealer used to play all over Mexico a bunch back through the 70's - 80's and had a pair of DMS TT500's. Sold both of them off in the early 90's, no idea where they ended up.

Agree with Steve, had 8 Husky's in the garage yrs ago. Drove the 40 mins to San Marco's more that a few times for parts and advice.

This post can keep going, but I got really lucky and found a 2nd version DMS frame in early 2020.
Built it how I wanted it, mechanically its done. And on the road. Was going to do the finish work / paint etc, then 4 ATK 560's and a 81 495 KTM found spots in the garage. So for now it's being ridden in primer. :o)
