Love the sound of those RG's. The earlier GP ones even more so. Although the 6 cylinder four-stroke racing Honda's and MV's give them a run for the money in the ear pleasure stakes..

No sound :wall
The first time I heard a full blown racing two stroke was at Donnington with Eddie Lawson climbing all over the front of a YZR500 trying to stop it looping over backwards, what a noise :D

Talking of Rg500's https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1183925668291400&id=414982355185739&fb4ar=1443048325#

I swear,  that noise gives me goosebumps.


Wow, you just don't hear that noise anymore out and about these days.  :\

It's making a lot of noise but not really moving fast at all, a bit like my boss at work.  :lol

 :lol. I think it has a very tall 1st gear & I guess Ago didn't want to slip the clutch too much on the demo ride. It's an old bike and probably worth a fortune, but wow that sound! :)

My God after listening to those strokers and the MV agusta I had to lie down in a dark room - terrific stuff!
This is as young as you're ever going to be!
