The Yamaha SR500 was a single-cylinder roadster launched in 1978. It used an air-cooled 499cc single derived from the XT500, with a kickstart only and a classic, minimalist style.

It was popular with riders who wanted a simple, classic bike, and became a favourite for café racer builds. It was the bigger sibling of the SR400. Rivals included the Honda GB500 and Royal Enfield Bullet.
