there was a guy walkin around with a sign on the front and back of his shirt
which read ...WANTED 1985 RM500 BIKE OR PARTS.....

I know someone who wrecked an 85, I still have the clamps and swingarm some place.  ;D

My own 84 RM500 is a bit of a bitsa with NOS 85 casings and who knows what bolted to it,  but seems to go like an express train.
