Evolution of Gammagir1's RG500 Gamma

Bought a 1986 RG500 Gamma from Barrie Ontario for $2000 canadian.  Gonna need some serious work!  Here's some pics.  Will be rebuilt this winter.  Needs new pistons, but will rebuild the entire motor, what the heck!  Who knows where and what's been done to it.  Will be totally stripped down and rebuilt with new seals, grease, forks and brakes rebuilt etc etc etc.

 


 


 


 

Now THATS dirty!!!

Nasty right piston eh??

Look at what some plug of a previous owner (not pat) did to the cylinders!
They wrote on the top, and both sides of every cylinder!!

It's not like you are already invisible on a motorcycle, but someone had to paint over half the tail light to put a big Suzuki "S" on the taillight!  Sheesh

 

More to come this winter!  For now, check out the progress of my RG400 Gamma!
