The twins are good too!
Personally I think the T500 is the best two stroke Suzuki ever made! and a properly set up one will leave any kettle or 550 for dead! There again I am biased as I've had one or two :P
That there's fightin' talk! :lol:

The only reason I'm resurrecting this thread is because I'm converting my little 380 back to it's correct "A" livery. So, the work has begun!

Of course, once the job is done, I will have the complete "B" set of tank,side panels, headlamp shell and brackets, indicators, brown faced clocks (Speedo NOS) rear B style lamp bracket( Rechromed bracket and NOS light assembly fits 380,550 and Kettle) for sale on first refusal to you guys but I'm not keen on selling piecemeal.

The tank comes with a brand new fuel cap and badges but not the fuel tap

I will post photos of all the bits in detail.

AND, once I've finished converting the bike back, it will be for sale so if anyone is interested it is worth reviewing this thread.
