    I have a better idea - I'll take my 250 and race your 1200 for pinks. Bring your sneakers...

    ( 250s are wonderful, but NSRs are downright scary. You know you have more pictures of that thing to post, yes? )

    I mean, I started off on a ZX600E and it was dog slow, i can imagine a 500 suzuki being complete tart. no wonder they just sit in a basement and noone rides the bike.

    And what's even more weird? The smoke is kind of blue. I don't know what to make of it.

    Ok, are you trolling at our expense? Is this Brad? Seriously though, if you have questions about the difference between a four stroke motor and a two stroke motor, they can be answered here.

    i was hoping for some fun making, katanaman style :D

    Nice bikes, there was or maybe stil is a ROC YZR500 for sale on tz350.net asking price right at 35k pounds. I am going to 125's next, 250 is too much of a bike for me. i don't even want to know how crazy a 500 will be.

    YES!!

    Could you take pics of each step as the thing comes apart and goes back together cause that is about as close as I will ever come to rebuilding a 500 as I will get!

    GMC 2-strokes only

    O.K. guy's stop fouling around I started out on a R6 and it goes good, but the R1's smoke me on the straights. So why would you want a little 500? My friend had one of those 500's I think he said CX, all I know is it was a dog.:Puke:
