    Nice... But at 30k it's not like new, so I can't see how someone would get THAT much more for one... The only rg500s I've seen were all in pretty good nick, too (not quite as nice), but were also 12-13K cheaper...

    It's a shame that there aren't any medium or large size 2 smoke road bikes mass produced any more.

    hmmm, 20K is a little steep for an RG500, hell of a nice bike but 20K, I would agree that there are better iconic 2 strokes to spend your dough on.

    yea i don't think he's dreaming. i got $7k for a 400 last year and it was a bit rough round the edges. the 500 is definately collectable now and i think you'd be hard pressed to find a nicer one. plenty of guys that would luurve it in the collection (and the price will get negotiated too, just by how much is the question)
