Roger, good luck partner.  I have been looking for the 81' 495 also.  They are extremely rare.  I have an 83'495 and it is very hard to get parts for.  Check out //www.ktm495.co.uk there are some of us who have these bikes years 82',83'and 84'.  We need someone with an 81' to make the site complete.  Good luck in your hunting and please let us know your progress.

Hey Eric there was a guy on the 495 website who said he would like to buy a 495.  He was from South Africa I think and sounded like he would pay your price. I will try to connect you guys.
