About the Suzuki RG 500
The Suzuki RG500 Gamma is a road-legal two-stroke homologation special from 1985 to 1987. Its 498 cc four-cylinder with four separate carburettors and twin crankshafts was directly inspired by Suzuki Grand Prix technology. With around 95 hp and a dry weight near 170 kg, it remains fast, light and intense. It is a collector motorcycle with genuine riding appeal, but never a carefree classic purchase.
The RG500 suits an experienced enthusiast who understands two-stroke machinery and can budget time and money for proper maintenance. It is most valuable in original form; correct exhausts, airbox, fairing panels and carburettors matter greatly. It is exceptional on a fine-day ride, yet heat, fuel consumption, modest brakes by modern standards and expensive parts require realism. Have a specialist inspect a candidate before buying.

What to check before buying
- Verify crankshaft, bearing and piston history with invoices; rebuilding the four-cylinder engine is specialist and expensive work.
- Check all four carburettors, intake rubbers and the original airbox for completeness and correct setup.
- Inspect fairing, mounts and exhausts for cracks and repairs; original parts are scarce.
- Check coolant hoses, radiator and temperature behaviour in traffic.
- Test brakes, tyres, wheel bearings and suspension; many examples have stood unused for long periods.
