Sweet as. I like the colour scheme, reminiscent of the Skoal Bandit team - as said by Mellwr1 earlier. Surprised it doesn't contain some part of Kevin Schwantz's GP Bike, there was a time when every 2-Stroke Suzuki owner in UK Bike Mags claimed to have some exotic factory bit, from the Pepsi bikes. Anyways, you've done a great job there. Stay Safe and all the best.
Bike Looks Dope in them colours. Have ridden ZXR's/GSX-RI's/ F/Blades etc... But... The feel/ anticipation of a 2T just about to ' Come on the pipe' Yeah, That's Living all right ! Thanks for sharing !
Thanks so much for watching and sharing your views. Obviously I have to agree. This bike sat along side my brand new GSXR and Blade in the 90s but it was the one I kept. It was a scrappy dog, in comparison but topped them both with the fun factor. That says something... Back then, it's handling was poor and it had no brakes but now it's as good. Love it!
My favourite bike of all time, awesome. Love the vid then read the background of you and the bike in the description, great story you and you bike have. Thanks very much for the in-depth write up, that took time and effort.
Thanks so much for watching. So pleased that you enjoyed it. Yes, we go back along way. At long last the bike is how it should be. Just went out to the garage now, just to see if everything was OK. I think I'm in love 😅
@fishbmw Black and red is more sleek but thought it looked new and a bit different. Hoping to go out to Hastings on Monday with Simon on his black and red one, plus a Pepsi. Thought it would be epic to have 3 versions. Just need a Walter Wolf and Classic Blue/White for the full set. ❤
Did you buy a pre painted panel set for your RG? If you did do they fit well, looks like it does. I often wondered about the tank cover that comes with the kit, how they fit, as a good protection method for the tank. I still haven’t got my gamma on the road as the ignition barrel is now junk! ATB
Yes, direct from China. They are OK with some fiddling. Quite weak though. They do the job. The tank cover is dead easy. I was amazed to find a perfect tank underneath. It just pushes over and hugs. Nothing else required.
She's fun, she's quick but agree, cc = power and there's a lot that is way more superior these days. She is what she is, but doing so well for an old 'un! Thanks for watching.
Has to be one of the best two strokes in the UK , that pick up is awesome 👍 what a cracking bike,,☘️☘️☘️☘️ from northern Ireland,, I like it the black and red ,, but either way cracking bike,,
Thanks so much Cecil. Yes, wife has never taken any interest in it, until it changed colour. Now she hates the green. Says it now looks weak and insignificant. 😮 Glad you like the videos ❤
@RG500_detectorist get the rest of the skoal bandit decals on look 👍 As for setting up carbs , dyno is the only way to go👍too much risk guessing with jetting, and expensive if you get it wrong🙄
Absolutely agree! She's fun, but probably most modern bikes are way more superior these days. She is what she is, but doing so well for an old 'un! Thanks for watching.
The sound on this clip is just SHOCKING! Very amateurish. With the shear amount of people posting some very high quality content, you have to sort your sound out man.
That KTM was not unable to keep up, stop dreaming. It was just driven by a person that does not drive like you (and like another thing, starting with as) in urban environment. Should he have wanted to show you his tail light, with same weight and about twice the power, it would have been folded quick.

Many thanks. So pleased that you watched the videos. Enjoy. Hopefully out tomorrow in the Sun! ❤
@@RG500_detectorist Hope you get the good weather. Have a good 1
Jesus that's a quick bike. Colour scheme is really nice.
Many thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed joining me on the ride

I had my Pepsi 500 Stan Stevens tuned to 147bhp 3rd gear at the rear.
All I can say is WOW! and can't imagine how that was. Makes this like a tame toy, I'm sure!
The sound and the 2t smell is amazing👌🏻👌🏻
My favourite bike of all time, awesome. Love the vid then read the background of you and the bike in the description, great story you and you bike have. Thanks very much for the in-depth write up, that took time and effort.
P.S. Love the new green clothes as much as I loved the black and red.👌

the little white car made it look slow
For sure!
Thanks for watching!
she goes alright but i dont think she is a match for my ZX10R
She's fun, she's quick but agree, cc = power and there's a lot that is way more superior these days. She is what she is, but doing so well for an old 'un! Thanks for watching.
@@RG500_detectorist a long time ago a friend of mine put a RD350LC motor in a 250 frame, it went like stink, love those old strokers
@@ukdnbmarsh Yes, a lot of fun. This one is now going sweet as. Went out today. Superb!

I don't think it's the case that the KTM couldn't' keep up, I think it's more that you ride like a dangerous prat in a built up area and he doesn't
My best buddy died 2 saturday's ago doing exactly this...please go to a track day.
Love a skoal bandit gamma👊👌😎
The wife hates it, says it's much better in RED/BLACK. I like the lovely clean look but not sure I'll be able to keep it that clean !! 😁
@RG500_detectorist get the rest of the skoal bandit decals on look 👍
As for setting up carbs , dyno is the only way to go👍too much risk guessing with jetting, and expensive if you get it wrong🙄
yes, they're on order. As for carbs, only air screw fiddling. Going to try some splitters.
@RG500_detectorist if ur trying to iron out flatspot at 6k it's probably needle height adjustment. Like I say, dyno
@mellowr1 many thanks. Hope to see you soon 😊
As much as i love these bike. they are not a match for modern bikes
