toe1959 Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 this was my old rg500 ex race bike I had for over 11 years, was good in its day, now a good 600 will be quicker, it was just the sound of them four pipes on song, still miss it, the motor ended up in a rgv250 frame, this was all done before the net was around, hours looking in mcn etc good old days. sorry poor pics. 1 Quote Link to comment
Rimotu66 Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Bet you wish you still had it like most of us do our old bikes, how did we ever manage without t'internet ??? Quote Link to comment
toe1959 Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 sold it for £1500 after the crank let go, prob be all them 3rd gear ragging it on the back wheel, mate down the road has still got his rgv500 with a spare engine, getting big bucks now for them. Quote Link to comment
M3talpig Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 that looked gorgeous in the lucky paint and standard frame, and your probably right about the 600 leaving it behind but the 600 wouldn't sound remotely as cool or smell as sweet. Quote Link to comment
badgerkdd Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Great photo's! That's the one thing I miss about pre internet days though, fewer and fewer local breakers yards to spend a Saturday morning rummaging through, browsing auction sites just doesn't smell the same. 4 Quote Link to comment
