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

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!
