"1971 Suzuki T-500, two-cylinder, two-stroke. Fun to ride, crappy brakes, kept blowing baffles out of the exhaust pipes, ugly pale purple color. Loved that bike."
Yeah right. :roll:

One of my bosses told me today about the RD400 he had back in the 80's and how it would pull 4th gear wheelies. I didn't say anything cause he wouldn't have believed me anyway. :crazy:

Why do so many of them think it's a Suzi 380? :wtf:

4th gear might be pushing it, but my ported/piped RD400 would loft the front wheel in 3rd once in a while. That is UNDER POWER and not a clutched-up wheelie.

quick little bike.

My point was a H2 in 4th at 70mph, the bike would be reving something like 4k
