Sheene Replica RG500

[MetricHotrodsdotcom]

you dont have to go gay, they are only about 6500 USD if you can find them in Japan (where I live) and another 1500 or so for all the Magical Racing garb.

[blindingsun]

I'd go gay for an Rg500

[syharvey10]

jeffurac**ksucker who obviously loves to brag about how great he is cos if truth be known your actually a transgender. The bike is priceless to the owner who has spent many hours building and polishing the thing. KNOBWAD.

[DandizzleUK]

Who could dislike this video? Seriously, if you know nothing of motorcycle heritage, or just think the 2 stroke engine sounds annoying due to the local chavs in your area, do one. You have no place being here or anywhere near a motorcycle of such grace and elegance. You know nothing of how superior two stroke engines are to four stroke, you know nothing of racing history and how this bike is so amazing and this all projects in light of a fundamental lack of knowledge for anything amazing..fu all

[syharvey10]

jeffuryca When you ride a bike that dont belong to you and is virtually priceless guess what, you treat it with respect dimwit. That dosent mean taking is as low to the deck as you can. Stupid septic tank.......

[jeffuryca]

@syharvey10 Dear overreacting dimwit who needs 2, because u have a tiny penis I assume, start a fight for no reason assmunch, 1st off, why get so pissed off & start throwing insults nut ball? 2nd, Virtually Priceless? U r mad! It is a nice bike, but not priceless. It is a STREET bike converted 2 LOOK like a race bike & put on the track. 3rd when you ride for a living, I assume u don't, I have, u know how 2 control a bike & there is NO WAY 2 test the suspention nor the motor @ that speed.SQUID

[CodeTwo2]

@jeffuryca "It is a STREET bike converted 2 LOOK like a race bike & put on the track."

Thanks for sharing that acute observation, but most of us already knew. The title kinda gave it away - "Sheene REPLICA RG500".

And why the hell should it be "tested" as if being set up to race? It is not intended to be raced.

[jeffuryca]

@CodeTwo2 Obviously you didn't read or comprehend that this was a response to another comment & obviously the person who made the comment didn't realize it was a replica & you were too dim to figure that out, so here is the heads up.

2nd No where did I even mention testing it like you are racing it, so you are putting words in my mouth then commenting negatively about those words. I find that rather funny.

My advice to you is pull your head out before you look anymore the fool.

[CodeTwo2]

@jeffuryca I read it. He didn't mention testing - you did. Re-read your own words.

[jeffuryca]

@CodeTwo2 I do not know what you problem is other than you are not comprehending what you are reading/watching/hearing. Nowhere did I write testing it like he was racing it. I only mentioned that going as slow as he was going, he could NOT have compressed the suspension enough to test the handling of the bike, it just isn't physically possible @ those speeds. If you bother to actually watch the video & listen to what he says post ride, he clearly compares the handling negatively to a GSXR1K.

[jeffuryca]

Nice bike but who the heck is this guy doing the testing? Maybe I am spoiled as I raced for 11 years, but I get my Ducati at a lower lean angle pulling out of a driveway then he gets on the circut. Looks like he is going to get a carton of milk!

This video reminds me of back in the day. My brother had one of only 3 known RG400's in the United States. He bought it at the USGP in 1988 I believe. We saftey wired it & put it on the track. I rode it off into the dirt going into the Omega @ Willow.

[DandizzleUK]

@jeffuryca lmao, if i were him though i'd be scared to drop it! :P I laughed so much at "going to get a carton of milk" haha XD

[elsunn]

2-stroke 500cc motogp bike, talk about violent power!!

[philboboggins]

what a fuckin beauty. RIP baz, greatly missed.

[martynpank]

Where are all the RG500's now? I mean road versions? Were they really that bad?

........& RD500?

[retromurdok]

@martynpank they are being clung on to by there owners and they probs are never letting go. these things are elitest collection items for sure.

you check the price for a NSR 250cc They cost a fortune for what they are.

[martynpank]

@retromurdok You are so right! 'Old 2-strokes never die'! .........What? If you have them on the road, they die soon! I heard last week that the Gamma 250, was unreliable........so, no more around!

Back in the days I had RD's (7x250's, 1x400) & they were ULTRA reliable! Mind you, I had a Suzy T250 Hustler & it was dreadful!

[222fox1]
