looks to be nice condition 8)

don't take it personal - but in my opinion (for what it's worth :roll: ) the RD500 lines just don't seem to flow - always look like a bitza

i'm sure the motors nice though :)

:shock: Another beauty for the collection then Mr Waki =P~
I think thats the best colour for it,rd's in marlboro racing colours where always drooled over more than standard by me :)
Those and the rg 500 have got to be about the most iconic collecters bikes about(price also backs this up),rather rapid as well i expect 8) .
Nice to see two pefect partners getting togeather :D

Thats interesting Waki, the shop I mentioned also brought the same model/colour bike off a woman who had owned one for years? Will pop in to see if he still has it. I know he had part of the engine stripped down when I last saw it.

Looks good... I want a 500 :) What sort of money is a rough/ok/good rd500 roughly these days ? and is it more desireable/expensive than a rg 500 ?

Vector..there fetching very good money..
rough ones fetch good money...
mint ones fetch anything from £5k to £7
average £3> on

But the parts are terrible to find...
Main Dealer.....is "NLA"..
so if you go for one..make sure its a good one..
spares that are good are rare...
Odd really...as you can still get most parts
new for the 250/350LC...
some of yPVS stuff is the same but not much...
Its an experience...But its a 500.... :lol: :lol: =P~

At some point, I've owned every LC made.
80LC
125LC
250LC
350LC
500LC

I wish I still had them all....
