newbie saying hello

hi all,

bought an 83 xv 500 a year ago, picked it up in glasgow. rode it back to norwich, found out from a previous mot it came from lowestoft. since buying it it seems that this nice little machine does not exist. haynes say it doesnt in their handbook, any spares website i go on do not list it.. which may explain why the maintenance has been poor. are there any more xv 500 riders out there? please tell me i'm not alone. i need to find out where i can get parts. most pressing is an airfilter. paper type it's got sport filters but hasnt been rejetted so runs a little rough at tickover i also need rocker gaskets and clutch side gasket. theres a small leak when warm not helped by a missing bolt.. any advice will be welcome.

many thanks.
