Thanks Pipe....I'll check it out!!ThePipe wrote: A buddy of mine has a nice 83 RM500 for sale here in WI

That thing is MINT!!!
That Full Floater was awesome in the day.
Mine had headshake also, but you have to stiffen the forks with stronger springs. And lower the rear sag a little. Then it handles good.

That's the same one as the link from Pipe......I emailed Jim and he said he'd just listed it on eBay. Looks great in the pics.Oldskool wrote: There's one on eBay right now with "Buy it Now" of $1,995. It looks pretty nice, too. I don't know how to make the link work though.
I'm still looking for an original '84.....so blue frame, aluminum silencer, and RM500 on the seat. I don't really want to turn an '83 into an '84 unless I have to.
Funny how the one thing everyone remembers was the rear suspension. Most of the bike was pretty old tech even when new......but that rear end made up for it......almost!!
Sorry, but Motodrive is currently unavailable. We were over our quota for flamers and idiots today. Try back again soon.

PM'd you. I was really looking for an' 84, but an RM500 of any year seems pretty hard to find. I know the only reason I bought mine was because it sat on the showroom floor so long the dealer almost gave it to me when I bought my new 125 & 250!! Not a very popular bike back then, especially in Canada.dgarr64 wrote: i have a 83 rm 500D am selling i hate to get rid of it but.... great bike
