This is a fantastic looking RG500 registered in Washington state! Located in Spanaway, Washington is a 1986 Suzuki RG500 Gamma. This bike is titled and registered but not much else about it is mentioned in the ad. The asking price of $15,000 is pretty consistent with what we’ve seen in the past especially if it has low miles. Being in northern Washington, this bike could possibly be this RG–but cleaned up–which we posted in May of 2009.
The RG500 line was only produced for four years and is one of, if not, the ultimate incarnations of a road going two-stroke. This bike features a 495cc water cooled, rotary disc-valve, two-stroke power plant fitted to a race-replica aluminum frame with the top of the line suspension for the period. Some owners do complain about the 16in front wheel and notchy gearbox but, I’m sure no one would turn down an opportunity to ride one of the ultimate stink wheels. And if you’re wondering: Yes, it would be OK to sell your son/daughters Civic and make them ride the bus, they can always sit in the garage and stare at the RG with you.
