New guy here from maple, auto mechanic by trade. Ride a 99 ducati 750ss, just finnishing a yamaha xs 650 bobber project. Looking at a 86 suzuki rg500 gamma, price is good. Anyone have any input or experience on this bike? Have always like them, now have a change to get one. Thanks, Tony.
 
Welcome to the forum!
Would love to see pics of that bobber!

The RG is a terrible bike. I'll take it for parts. Send me the details....but in case you decide to get it, it will give you a thrill that's for sure....

:cool: Maybe you can tell us:
Do you need to be a motorcycle certified mechanic to road certify a motorcycle or can any auto mechanic provide that service?
... that question popped up in another thread.
 
Welcome to GTAM Duc guy.
 
raced that bike in the 80's .narrow powerband (like any 2 strokes) ,quite nimble,but was very prone to tankslapper. very,very short footprint ; i was about to get some snowmobile rotary valves to widen the powerband, then the 1st CBR's landed on the market.now,it would make a very nice street bike with some cool arrow pipes. i regretted selling mine.should had kept it . 3 decades has past, and i now would jump on the occasion if a lightly uised one was showing up.i heard (licorns probably) suzook has b rand new units collecting dust in crates in canada. would stretch the asked money if one was offered to me,no doubts.
 
Still a work in progress. Hope to have it out this year...
