Reminds me of my days in the 1980s in the San Fernando valley. Me and a dozen friends terrorized the roads and mountains in so Cal on 2 strokes. RZs TZRs NSRs RDs Gammas. We had em all. Fantastic memories of buzzing around at 80 carving thru Angeles Crest in shorts flip flops and no helmets , splitting traffic on the ventura freeway!!!!! Nothing like having 15-20 2 stroke screaming by you like a swarm of hornets. Two strokes rule. Its a disease. The good old days.
Awesome story, other than the fact that y'all rode without helmets. Still blows my mind, that land splitting for motorcycle riders is legal in California, and that they truly believe it's safe, when it's not even close to being that. Different Strokes For Different Folks, literally and figuratively. Lmao.
I've owned RZV500R special import UK in 1988! Was just stunning and I was Wayne Rainey on the British streets , no one ever got by me! I de restricted it and changed overall gearing and she pull 150 mph back in that day was bloody fast! I was weened on a RD400 E prodi tuned !omg that could pull me arms off! 60hp rd400 flies! I've had em all! TZR250RC-SP 1991 spec! Full 70hp bike fully deristricted , 3ma sp? Stay with 500 easy! 40 kg lighter! I have RD350YPVS now 1983 31K like new! In my garage! But I bought aprilia RS250 mk2 14 years ago ,its so ballistic tuned by aprilia works team! 80hp at crank n rrd 72hp @rear wheel! This bike hits 150 mph ! I keep for life! Yamaha never made mk2 500 rd which we where all waiting for! I was so dissopointed in Yamaha that's why I got RS 250. I'm a born two T junkie! Thanks for reboot memories! 2T4life
Two wonderful 2T Yamaha. I love two-stroke engines, 500 V4 Yamaha is one of my dreams coming, but here in Brazil is very difficult to find one, I will have to leave the country to buy mine. Today I am with two RD350R 1991, a black and a white and another TDR180 (which was only manufactured in Brazil - air motor). Thanks for the ride, loved the ride.
Takes me back. I had a RZ500 in 1986 which I bought in Brisbane Australia and rode through to Cairns where I was living at the time - about 1750 kilometre trip. The 500 in this video runs a bit rougher than the one I had, and mine always kicked over first time. Was a joy to ride. I'd also ridden the RZ250 & 350, and the power bands on those were far more pronounced that the RZ500. The 500 had a more even spread of power. Having owned a Katana before this the RZ 500 handled beautifully in comparison. Sold it in 1987 - truly collectable now.
@@chrispederson4157 I was offered 18k Canadian. Then he said 16k. He was just f***ing me around. The Ahole pointed out blemishs and acted so disappointed and upset at the small imperfections. I told him it's a 37 year old bike with low millage. Why don't you go buy a new one. Then I said, wait, you can't buy a new one. he was criticizing the bike to get a cheap price. That pissed me off. Send an Email and I'll send picks.
BRINGS BACK MEMORIES: Thank you dudes! Unbelievable, as I remember riding my RZ along with a TZ250 around UBC area, practicing our turns racing around an empty school parking lot just like you two. The TZ dude had been stalking me, I figured, haha. And as it turned out on those streets, that TZ250 could keep up to me, which surprised me. I rode/raced my secondhand (bought in '89) '85 RZ500N with solo seat, ported and polished with Boysen racing reeds and used Michelins 185s on the back, around the streets and highways whenever the coast was clear. I got it in Toronto and rode it across the mid-US up to Alberta and over to BC. It took me 10 days as I hooked up with my bro and friend but could've made the trip in 7 days, I figured. Stupid bike for that kind of trip: earplugs for the violent noise, my inner thighs became hugely bruised in the end, avoided wrist and numb hands from the buzzing by making the throttle sticky and heavy to turn by putting a wind of rope retarding the throttle's motion. After making it through the Rockies in October (freezing temps) I arrived and lived in Vancouver for 11 years riding the RZ strong all seasons in Vancouver. Lost my license for too many points but it was worth it. Cleaned the carbs frequently, and changed and gapped a new sparkplug whenever a cylinder's exhaust wasn't pumping hot. Used Torco low-smoke 2-stroke oil; plus, a little Duralube now and again, and added an octane boost to bring up the octane to 100 each fill-up, which made it run long and relatively clean. Avoided using synthetic oil after the machine overrevved too easily and consequently blew a seal that needed to be fixed. Damn good times but young and mad times on that thing too. I lived on that RZ every day. Finally, I totaled it changing lanes goin' only 60km 'round a bend under a hidden parked car after passing a van, which blinded me like a billboard for that split second of the f'ing illegally parked car. I'm fine as I bailed safely, but the bike I ended up selling for parts as is for $250 to a dude wanting to rebuild it in Edmonton. That RZ was infamous in Van up to the year 2000 and was like a stick of dynamite to ride ~ light the fuse and go! Take care bros ...
Because the TZR250 was close to a full on works bike. As the works TZ250 bike cost around $12,000.00 today..At the time a TZR250 cost $4,500.00.. That was a lot of money in 1980s..
I grew up with 2 strokes both dirt and street. And it take a certain skillset to drive a 2 stroke street bike well. Beautiful bikes! Thx for the ride along.
A friend of mine had the RZ500, the most powerful 500cc bike on the market at the time, and I had a CX500... the least powered 500cc motorbike available! Haha. Love the RZ.
UnsightedADV I like how they have the super sports bike look to them do you want to sell one of these and thanks for the amazing video best I have seen
Had an 86' RZ500 back in 90'. Toomey chambers and a re jet made it fun to ride ...wound up trading it in for a FZR600 a year later . Can't believe what 2smokers are worth today .
Found one at the old Union Cycle Salvage in Houston about a yr after they came out with the front wiped out. Life kept me from scooping it up. “Cause of you kids we can never have nice things!”
Great Video, Brother. Highly interesting and entertaining. I'm very fond of your RZ 500, and would love to have the privilege of riding one. I've been a 2 stroke fanatic my whole life, which is a must for dirtbikes, although, I always owned fast 4 stroke naked bikes, until recently, when I was blessed and fortunate enough, to have a rare opportunity, to buy a fully restored from the frame up, with the engine taken off of the frame and rebuilt, 1985 2 stroke Yamaha RZ 350 Kenny Robert's edition streetbike, with yellow paint, and the old school Yamaha black and white block graphics. So damn fun to ride, when the powerband comes on the pipe, and it pulls you like a slingshot. Much more enjoyable to ride, than a very fast 4 stroke upright naked bike. Much love and respect, from New Orleans, La. Just subscribed to your You Tube Channel.
Gotta love a Yammy two stroke, it's just a shame that the prices of bikes like these are getting out of the reach of many. Thanks for uploading the video
Memories of 1985 for me, had a brand new 500lc. Now have a highly modified zzr1100, in candy orange, Kings violet, too much to list.. But I'd have the 500lc back anytime and sell the big zed, there's something about the noise and the smell, fantastic.
Nice bikes even if though I always hated the skinny sound of 2 stroke :p Just some points on clutch less shifting cause i see you got some flak for it. While there are some bikes that won't like it, bikes with heavy flywheels or slow revving / decelerating engines. However sport bikes with close ratio gearing DONE RIGHT clutch-less shifting will not harm anything, and It's actually smoother, defiantly faster then clutching so acceleration bonus on up shift. This is because clutch re-engagement takes that split second as well as gears to mesh up again during that time you're loosing momentum. That loss gets bigger with slower and or sloppy clutch operation. Down shift take a little more practice and fineness but it becomes second nature quickly.
I took a 500 out for a test ride from the local dealership in Gloucester, UK one time.. Up until that point the most powerful bike I'd ridden was my Yam' RD430 (bored out 400) with Allspeeds and a 350YPVS rear-end grafted on by Harris Engineering (don't ask why, it was ridiculous) and even that didn't go THAT fast.. When the front came up without me even trying I couldn't believe it.. then I dropped it trying to 3-point turn across the road when I realised I'd been gone too long and needed to turn around.. bent the clutch lever and scratched the fairing.. that spoilt the ride back.. I was so ashamed I just parked it up, said thanks and left.. they got me next time I was in for a part and asked me to pay for the clutch lever.. so dumb.. so 18 years old ha ha..
250 just a little short leged for that 500 . still have my 500 from the eighties. It took me a couple of years to learn the steering of that machine , steering head angle and 16" front tire require you to go deep before turning. Even though it has very little rebound suspension once rolled over it stays planted.
yum yum a V4 500cc 2 stroke!! the 250 struggling like a cat to keep up with the 500cc monster.... you should also try to add the RD350ypvs twin in line cylinder to your collection...it was a great bike as well, i rode that in the 90s and its was already 10yrs old then, it went max 200kph like a cat leaping into the moon!
I love the smell of burnt Castrol in the morning, it smells like, VICTORY! All the heartbreak BS hours to keep a two-smoker running, are worth it when the guy on the Gixxer thinks he's hot shit and you just SMOKE him off the line. Literally, he will be bitching that your exhaust screwed up his intake and that's why you won. "Dood I ain't your girlfriend, and I ain't the one that dickered that race"
'83 to' 92,nothing but Kawasakis, they were the best. '19, money to get bike, nothing fancy, safe, reliable, fun, and my fitst thought on what kind of bike, no Kawasaki shops, thought good RD250LC, 350LC, or maybe RD500LC, how much fun to be had, on one of those. Turned down a CBR600RR, sight unseen, saw it wanted it, just sold, oh well I'll have to have the '05 GSF 650 BANDIT, not a Bandit S, way, way, way more torque on my 650 Bandit, turns out, one very careful, cautious owner, who basically ran it in for 15,000 miles, and it pulls, fly's up steep, steep hills, like it's falling off a cliff. Such a JOY to play with. RD, RZ500, very nice, but the Bandit acceleration, feels like an industrial catapult got involved with it's going. Professor B. T. E. OUT, BANDIT TORQUE ENJOYMENT.
very cool bikes ! I sold my 500 4 years ago out here in Langley, wonder where it is Now? one thing I know about it , it has no carb shrouds their in my shop still lol
Chilliwak/abbotsford area ? Looks very familiar. I was given one of these bikes to do the body work on a back in 2010 and the guy never paid me, i didn't know nothing about these bikes so i sold it for $500. Only later did i find out they are collector bikes. :/ I guess i should have researched it. It was complete minus a rear fairing

yes 2stroke everyday precious bike

Can't believe what 2smokers are worth today .
Beautiful exhaust sound...big fans of two stroke engine..👍👍
I had TZR 250 just like that in the early 90's. I had 125 TZR before that as my first bike. Great (and illegal) memories from that time. :D
Found one at the old Union Cycle Salvage in Houston about a yr after they came out with the front wiped out. Life kept me from scooping it up. “Cause of you kids we can never have nice things!”
Omg the sound....you guys are so lucky!
What a couple of great bikes. I'm so jealous, I wish my Honda NSR was at least a 250cc and not a 150cc.
Special bikes :-) Surprised not to see the 500's front wheel lifting off the ground, my old one used to power wheelie easily.
You sir made my night with the video, I have to have one, one day. Thanks bro, love the bike

Rad! I owned both those bikes, and rode some of the same roads as well (lived in Abby at the time). Quality nostalgia there.

The styling on these brings me back to my old FZR600. Miss that bike. It was a 1994 in white/red/blue color scheme.

Nice clutchless shifting👌
Douknowgregg left hand I don’t think ever touched it 🤣
My first road bike as a teen.. it was a street squirrel
was that TZR 250 a grey import? or sold here in BC Canada? I have a few RZ350's
Its a Canadian bike. Not Gray market
Oh. You have parts ? Friend
Which of these bikes can be easily found in North America? These 2 stroke sport bikes
They are all fairly rare now
Nice bikes 2 strokes for life why don’t you use the clutch?
looks like a ride of trying to catch up to the 500. had one as well. now 2 rz350. 20k for a 500, sold mine for 5k.
Quá đã, VN khó có thể sở hữu và trải nghiệm một chiếc như vậy đó là điều ao ước của bao người đam mê 2 thì
Gorgeous bikes
Beautiful Yamaha 😘 👌🏻 😍
RZVは、2台持って居ました。RG500Γも持って居ました。今もまた欲しいバイクの1台です。

The RZ 500 and The Suzuki RG 500- Last of the Real Sport Bikes. Accept No Substitutions!
Awesome bikes. a bit different from my 4 stroke v4.... Honda vfr 800 :D
Brilliant stuff.
did the ride start in Penticton? thats what it looked like to me!
Nope, fraser valley start to finish
Cool you're in my neck of the woods West Kelowna :) what's the chance lol maybe i'll see you guys out ridding some day!
Not west Kelowna, but drive 3 hours west and you are there!

Bad luck! $500 is a steal for any RZ500. In decent condition that are demanding upwards of 10k now
Jai, you are mad!
Beautiful bikes .
RD that isn't it? I thought I saw a cissy bar and the RZ didn't have one,not that there's anything different apart from cosmetics :-)
Best sound ever! 2Ts are the best! I post on 2T bikes on my channel too :)
Must be in British Columbia, eh?
Powerband must be awesome!
Dream Bike TZR 250
Where's the cloud of blue smoke??? My RZ350 used to kill mosquitos for miles around.
Check out the very end
@@UnsightedADV those bikes aren’t too bad. They must be tuned really well. Mine smoked horribly… (But still loved it)
Beautiful scenery, what state is that?
