Yamaha IT 400 E ONLY 895 MILES Interesting History 1978 For Sale

Here is a real survivor and a very interesting bike for a collector.
The bike is a Canadian supplied bike that was imported by the Original owner to the UK and registered in the UK back in 2014.
The bike is showing only 895 miles on the clock but unfortunately i do not have any history except an old MOT cert to back this up.
It has only one registered owner on the UK V5 and also comes with a dating letter from Yamaha UK stating that it is a 1978 model IT400 E
Now for the best news of all the last 4 digits of both the Frame and Engine Number are 1978 which is remarkable and will make this bike highly desirable for any collector.
The bike came to Ireland back in 2015 BUT IS STILL UK REGISTERED and has been in dry storage since.
i collect classic Yamaha's and i Intended to use this with my son who is just starting out with bikes but i am told that these bikes are a hand full and this is not what i need at my age so i have bought an DT 175 which will suit me better.
The bike ran three years ago when i bought it and i let it run out of fuel so it should just take fresh fuel to get her running again,
The bike would need some light restoration or maybe someone would just like to leave it in its Original UN RESTORED state.
I am not in any hurry to sell this but space is becoming an issue so i am offering this for sale reluctantly but i could change my mind at any stage especially as 1978 is the year i was born so really this bike has sentimental value to me.
If I feel that i can find a Genuine Good home then i will let it go.
Please can only Genuine Buyers make contact by Telephone Calls Only.
Sorry but i do not get much time to check emails so a phone call firstly would be great.
I Wil help with shipping to the UK or Europe at the buyers cost.
I have the Full UK V5 and the old MOT and Dating certificate from Yamaha

This motorcycle was imported from the US sometime in 2019 and has been subject to an extensive overhaul. ...

Rare 1965 Yamaha YM1 - Highly Original. Very few of these in the UK.

This is a bike I've owned since 1995 and have come to the conclusion I'll never ride it again. It sat in the house for years and then in the garage. I rode it every now and then over the time I've owned it. I had it properly overhauled in 2013 and recommissioned and MOTd in 2015 (Yamaha Service Centre in West London) and ...
