It was a great day at RT.
Do you know the guy in Germany selling the RN motor and forks?

[SON]

Does anyone have a close up of a water cooled RN 500 motor?

[GT43]

I dont know what this thing is ? 
At first it looked liked an RN, but I think it is someones mock up.
Not sure what the motor is ?  LT500 ?

[SON]

thanks IMO its an aircooled RM converted to watercooling by someone with skills within a Suzuki Team with access to a few goodies.
Probably done in 86 or 87
Nice

Yeah as son says it's a home built water cooled top end. Looks to be in a 84/85 250 chassis.

82 RN500 Tank
84 Radiator covers
But the rear disc just looks later
anyway I like it

Built by jan geboeers Eric's brother I believe it's got some cool parts on it but is damn ugly IMHO

Yes the rear disc is later but it's a 84/85 full floater chassis..

Yes my brother told me 1 minute after I posted

Thanks fellas.
Clever engineering going on then, converting an aircooled to watercooled.

Someones Brad Lackey replica in 100cc form. This was at a Marty Tripes event.




Love this Dr500 powered RN.

There are not many pictures about of the '83 watercooled RN500s. This one is of Harry Everts bike (#12) at the '83 British GP tech inspection / weigh in.

At the start of this vid shows a good shot of an RN83 as well.
