Not a Ducati but a Very nice RG500
 

I have to say im well impressed with this. Love the rear view

That is some awsome bike always wanted a RG500, hes certainly thrown some money at it.:o

It's been spoiled by fitting a GSXR body... if it's a RGV500 rep, why not make it look like one at least.

It just looks wrong...


This looks right...


:D:D:D

Ah my mate Sol. He's a nutter!

The original design is still the best.............the RD500 and the RG500 are legendary bikes and i would love a minter for the garage....i had a brand new RD500........man i wish i had not crashed it.......................... :barfy:..
the days of power !straightline power! microns or allspeeds! boysen reeds! suspension wots that! tyres yeah i got them ..LOL......

the sound of those 4 pipes bubbling away......Just awesome..........


Phil

I have a Marlboro RZV500R in the back of the Garage, The RVZ is a jap import version of the RD with an Ally Frame, tank and some magnesium bits.
The bike is totally standard and still has the original (restricted) pipes on it, one day i'll treat it to a set of Jolly Moto's or Nikons to see what it should sound like;)

bastid...................................;)...

Love it, love em all, two strokes are soooo cool, especially the 500's.
My mate has an RD500 and I adore it. Takes me back to my yoof :sing:

That standard one is stupid cheap isn't it.

That is lovely.................wonder how reliable they are...would love to have that..

One bike is never enough...unless you have a wallet like mine..:(

You cannot have too many bikes, it's a law of nature !

" if you buy it , it will come "

they were the good days....I'd started off on a RG125..with a full allspeed exhaust system,would love to have ridden a RD350YPVS AND THE RD500 AND RG500...you are a very luckly boy to have ridden some of my dream bikes...

Just found this pic of my 500 on the hard drive. Shame it dosn't show all 4 pipes. The colour is a bit deceiving as it's more orange than red.

I had a 350Lc. This piccie doesn't do it justice though:

What happened to the 2nd front disk? or is it a converted 250?

allspeeds huh.??

LMAO at those spongy grips..i had them in black......OMG its all flooding back now............:D

Yep it was a 250 with Stevens tuned 350 in it:devil:

Allspeeds. Cracking exhausts.

And yes those grips were certainly crap weren't they!

Sorry to dissapoint gents but the Duke wil go before me RS250cc.

This is 'the' track bike tool, the faces of the 'biger boys' when you stuff it past them, awesome.

2 stroke for ever !

get a real 250
the RS is just a copy Suzuki ;)

pucka two stroke below

I must admit, it's a mighty fine machine you have there.

But it does have four stroke design written all over it.

However, the RC/NC30 is another story / evolution !

Enjoy the big 2-stokes before their gone forever...

Nice, I like that.

I used to love my RVF, and the RGV that came before it...

My old RVF

Yeah, that RGV is well tasty. I prefer the early ones with a pipe either side, mmmmmm.

I must stop looking at this stuff, coz I can't afford anything and my wish list is getting longer every day :(

Only 3 weeks until I go back to work :D
