This time some pics of rather special contraption a Suzuki Mark 7 RG500 chassis with an RD500 engine, it was built for the F1 race class of the TT of Man in 1987. Raced by Mike Buoys, it completed 2 laps at 110 mph and retired due to a fuel leak. After that it was sold to Chris Faulkner and due to a broken wrist he did not ride the machine. Then it was sold by Steve Griffiths as a project to a collector and was restored by Nigel Everett. The machine is a Suzuki RG500 Mark 7 chassis, Suzuki radiator, magnesium throttle, long range replica alloy tank and fibreglass seat, Suzuki discs, top and bottom yokes, forks, temperature and rev counter, White Power rear unit and Campagnolo wheels. The engine comes from a Yamaha RD500, with Mikuni carbs and Gibson pipes.For more pics see
