Imagine adding 20 years additional development to the 500 GPs vs. MotoGP. Bring back the 2-strokes!!
Without doubt, I’m positive they’re talking about bringing two strokes back in future
Yes. !!!
how does one keep their cool when being in the presence of such a beautiful beast and piece of history let alone be calm enough to ride it???
so awesome. definitely a day to remember
It’s like everyone else on the track is riding a moped ... must’ve been a blast
Could never get tired of that sound.. Cheers Taylor
Great to see you ride this iconic bike. to control a bike like this ridden in anger from the 500 era took huge balls.... Niall Mackenzie, take a bow.
2 strokes dream, Gretting from France.
My new favorite video! Thank you VERY much!
Awesome ride Taylor that has to be good few quid's worth of bike but it sounded great and looked great to wow how lucky were you to get a go on that classic race tool . : )
Another fantastic video taylor , you must have been pinching yourself after riding that , good to see you and your dad enjoying the experience , good luck
Just a tach is all you need. Feel the machine❤❤❤
Great riding. That bike was hauling the mail!!! Thanks for posting! Cheers from the U.S.
I loved it at 4:00 when he caught the fast guys...
Ok I will probably watch this video every day 😆🏴👍
My god this is pulling like hell.
beautiful bike, superb driving! great to see your videos bro!
Thanks so much 😁
It would be interesting for you too give us your thoughts of it Taylor etc and describe what its like to ride ,Cheers T , good luck with the rest of the season and Tazz 👍
That must of been so brilliant!
Absolutely fookin ace Taylor! You lucky bastard 😂👍🤛😎
There is no greater thrill than that in the world of motorcycles.
ahhh the true use of 4 stroke engine to start a 2 stroke one :D
Haha so true 😂
Liked how you picked the other riders one by one , they must have thought what the heck was that , awesome Bike .
You were taking some nice lines there kid sweet that lad heavy boy 💯💪
Just before the last corner , knocks off the racing urge to drink in the experience , very cool .
Ah man you get to ride a piece of history Cool well done 👍👍👍🇮🇪☘️
Awesome bike.👍👍👍👌
It's crazy how fast you got used to the bike!!
What a machine!
Amazing!! 👍😁
Are there better days than this? 🙏🏽🔥
Angry bees.
First time i've seen one of your onboard videos, you should make more, first lap get the feel of the bike , once you were dialed in, you took that bike round to its full potential, great lines/braking/cornering, nice one, enjoyed it so much watched it twice :)
I'll hopefully get some more uploaded at some point!
@@tmac77 i'd love that thank you
Love the RGV,s and that smell of Castrol R40 , ask your dad about that stuff 👍👍
Just awesome
Lucky loon, well done. !!!
oh....... Oh....... OH......., SHAZAAAAAM!!!
Lucky lad, awesome
your camera angle is perfect for me to look ahead at the track. the only time i
lost sight is when you were tucked under the screen. a paradox i can live with:).
great shots. compared to your present day race bike which would you prefer
to race a championship on ?:).
What a ripper 👍
OH STOP IT FFS
Hahahaha
Let Fagan have a go! I want to hear the screaming. Faaaaarrrrrrrk, faaaaaarrrrrrrrrrk faaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrk
Perkins giving it a ride would be something too.. I’m really impressed at how good and fast Chris is on a bike!
Keep your momentum going as much as you can! Just let it flow 😁
Y2K GP bike v’s Bathams’ BMW. Would 20yrs of 4 stroke development be a match head to head??
Depends on the size of ones knackers
He did a 61 lap , 10 secs off pace
Depends on the rider and track I suppose he only just went out on it so was getting used to it...the 500 would probably struggle abit I think but it wouldnt be far off I think the last Nsr that Rossi rode was 190hp the superstock BMW is maybe 210 /220 ish and a tad heavier than a 500 so it would be close but stocker I would think is easier to ride on the limit and more user friendly!!! Interesting comparison 🤔 I know which one I prefer though and that would be the 500 all day long what a beautiful bike and the sound is just 👌 awesome
jammy bugger,that looked mega.
Awesome 👍✊️
Be gads!!! That's got some legs,and the noise💥. I grew up watching the 2-stroke moto GP(as was) Do u reckon now they can run cleaner we'll ever see something mass produced for on the road ?🙏😄👍. I sure hope so.
Who knows it would be cool though!
Alot of short shifting there.nice bike thanks.
Cette moto ma fait rêvé quand j'étais gamin avec Mr coulange et swantz 😊
J'ai eu la 80, 125 rgv, 250 rgv , manque plus que la 500 😊
Good job you got the arm pump fixed, think that machine is a bit of a handful :)
Love it
Love it 😍🤤
Thank you for riding it how it's supposed to.
🫡
Another cool video. Also excellent from a purely technical viewpoint, that's some of the best quality onboard footage i've seen, so bright and clear with no blurring / pixelation. Do you mind telling us what camera and settings you used?
Thanks so much! It's a go pro 9 with an ND filter on the front
@@tmac77 nice one cheers. Thought there must be more to it. The clarity is amazing. The kerbs look incredible 😂
Other guys on track bikes got 20 years of time , on bakes , engines , suspension etc , still a blast though ,. Well ridden dude ,. What’s engine breaking like ?. 😂🙏
Once he got comfortable…faster and faster. 👍
Ha ha. Classss Taylor 😎😎😎🙌🙌🙌
Taylor--so envious of your riding skills and connections to get to ride KRJR's 500GP bike. Do you wish that you had been racing in that era? My "connection" to Kenny is I know where he lives these days! He has NOTHING to do with motorbikes at all and he's happy that his children don't ride, either. He's really a nice guy, too.
Just for the sake of accuracy, that bike was Kenny Roberts Junior’s bike, not the great man himself 😉
Correct.
KR Jr. King kenny
I'm old enough to be confused at the beginning that this was a KR bike.
I was at Philip Island the year KR Jr won his championship, but such is the fame of his Dad it did not click to begin with when just Kenny Roberts is mentioned.
I’d so love to ride one
Awesome made my hands sweat watching that 😁
CLASSIC GRAND PRIX LEGEND IROC
Nice footage on one of my favorite ever bikes. Im going to Knockhill for a track day in a couple of weeks. Will be my first ever visit, any tips Taylor?
Bring an umbrella
@@grahamsmith8122 and wellies 🤣🤣🤣
Also solid advice 😂
Please try to describe the feeling you had doing a lap on that weapon 🙏🏻
Nice
Must have been awesome
Time to start drag racing these little beauties against super cars.
What would the rgv be like around Thruxton? and i think it would look good in the Bathams colours, nice video Taylor good luck for Cadwell
I think you'd feel every bump 😅
Great bike and the noice! Would love a head to head with modern superbike/ stock. Is it like F1 of that era obsolete?
Yes, exactly
What a dream to ride a gp500! Did you test also the olivier jacques tz 250?
I did yes! The video is on my channel
Wow what an opportunity. Which was your favourite out of the 3 you rode that day ? I’m so jealous
Definitely the 500!
Like shelling peas. Wow.
Strictly power wise how does it stack up to a stock 1000? Not drivability or anything just straight up balls? Or is it more like a 600 or 750?
It's not far off a 1000 at all! It's a lot harder to get flat out that's for sure with no quick shifter 😂
2,000 is that Kenny Roberts JR ?
What’s that bike worth
รอบจัดจ้าด
Lucky Boy..... :-)))))
Forget the money, but serious question, Taylor - which would you prefer to race, road based, or GP bikes?
Also, great to hear a 2 Stroke
GP bikes all day!
Love how you gave it a good spanking 😎
Do you think a new 2stroker could keep up today's bikes? 😎👍
With the right tyres I don't think it'd be far away
I’m curious (dreamland stuff), how would a 500cc GP bike like this fare in a BSB race? 🤔
Out of curiosity I looked up a few #s, not really apples-to-apples but gives an idea. Easiest to use Jerez because everybody goes there and the track hasn't changed. MotoGP lap record: 1:38.0 (2019); WSBK lap record 1:38.2 (2019); Stock 1000 (SBK) pole lap: 1:42.1 (2017) Kenny Roberts Jr qualifying time on this bike: 1:43.6 (2000).
Also: That 500 time is with tire technology from 21 years ago...it'd be interesting to see what difference modern race rubber would make.
One of the main reasons Grand Prix changed to 4 stroke apart from end of development on 2 strokes was that the world superbikes was lapping just as quick as Grand Prix bikes in the late 90s so I would think his bsb bike would be far superior
tell us your experience with this holy monster 🙂
You're a lucky boy. How did it compare to a modern superbike?
It felt a lot stiffer but you could definitely carry more corner speed!
Must be the thrill of a lifetime to ride an Unrideable. By looking at the tach you looked to be flogging it pretty well. If anyone deserves to ride one it is probably you!
Thanks!
always too many people in front of a 2 stroke, lovely riding Taylor, lucky boy. I am 51 so I can get away with calling you that. :)
imagine being one of the other guys on that track, going flat out, and t-mac laps you twice on a 20 year old bike :/
😂
who owns the RGV Taylor? Is it team classic suzuki?
It is yes 😁
cheers 😄@@tmac77
No launch control?
No aerodynamic wings?
No TCS/ABS?
how is it possible? This MUST AI made ;)
where is this?
why is the water temp so low?
It’s at the worlds greatest circuit also known as Knockhill in Scotland
OK thank you 🙂@@tmac77
So when are you going to get yourself a two stroke track bike marra??
Funny you should say that, project looming!
@@tmac77 track two stroke or road bike like your dad started on ?
Your instructions were, don’t throw it down the road 😎
correct 😂
@@tmac77 😊
Anyone who has never ridden a 500 gp bike is only jealous theses thing are mental as are most sports 2 smokes Are
Having said that I’ve only ridden a Harris yzr500r
And a few tzr 250 Lucky boy
Sure my dad sold Neil a new build house many moons ago either Denny or Bonnybridge I’m sure Taylor would have been a bairn
I think you're right there! I would have been very young
Lol bring back 500cc 2 stroke gp bike s and 750s sucks thay are all 4 stroke now with no sole 😢
So was it a boring ride then? :)
Hello I am a boy named Ben Simpson who has had a hard time the past few years I am up and coming and racing this year at a club competitive level probably thundersport or bemsee in mini twins . Is there any kind of support I can grasp to help along the way off someone such as ur self with the same struggles . I have came second in minigp uk 2017 so I’m not any random punter a little help would go a long way thankyou . Ben .
And yes I’m spamming so hopefully there’s a chance u see something x
I swear i could smell the oil
何処が？？
SUZUKI！RGV500??
Square4エンジン？？
何？？
Very little weight, narrow powerband and very close ratio gearbox.....would really keep you on your toes !
I see it's got electronics.....temp gauge and a tacho 😉
😂😂
Loads of journos have ridden these and described them as much tamer than they thought theyd be. I guess its all about perspective.
the design of the modern GP bike cannot match the looks of the bikes of this era , ,,Modern GP bikes all covered in plastic and aero dynamic wings just don’t cut it for me
:D :D
Nathans getting to much screen time.
Kenny Roberts jr, Kenny Roberts was his dad and a Yamaha man, get your titles right.
they did this intentionally... click bait
