French XTZ 660 Marathon For Sale - Not mine


Not sure if this is the correct part of the forum to post this, but on the website; leboncoin.fr there is a french XTZ 660 Tenere Marathon for sale.
I believe this is the version that was made for the public in '94. One of sixty bikes manufactured by Yamaha France/Sonauto (wich is the team that built the legendary Tenere rally bikes during the first 15 years or so).

Wether it is original, with Ohlins shocks etc., I do not know. But in any case the aluminium tanks with 37 liters are there.
And needless to say - on sale in France.

Here's the link;

Having seen another YMF Marathon 660, I'm not sure this is a real Marathon or a normal 660 with the big fuel tanks.

The Marathon is not just a standard bike with different tank and rear shock. There are many other small bits that make them different and special.

The bash plate looks pretty "factory" to me Vando.

Mezo.

Sure, tanks and bashplate water tank are original.

It's only my impression. Basically there's only one pic, so it is difficult to say one thing or the other.

Its worth that money for the parts & if its an original there`s another bonus.

Mezo.
