Suzuki RM500
« on: December 23, 2011, 01:22:21 pm »
With the talk elsewhere of building a 'Goof' replica, this bike looks to be a good starting point. I notice it's got one of those funky tank covers so the tank's probably ugly but the rest of the bike looks pretty clean. Not many of these made it to Australia when compared to CR500s, KX500's and YZ490s

I was told that there was only a hand full RM500D's that came over in 1983! Is this correct? I do believe that there weren't many?
