My first bike at 15, trades a Cobra CB radio & $40 for it, only had the front brake! The ear to hold the cable was broke off on the rear, I had already quit school. One came up for sale in Austin recently, but was gone before I called! One more would fit in the garage, Harley’s now but would love to have one again!
My uncle had one of them in iran, but he sold it when he emigrated to Australia But unfortunately his ship sinked in the sea and we dont know what happened to him
I had this exact bike. Most beautiful bike I ever owned perhaps. That really brings back memories. Were it not for the blue cloud it spews, I'd try to get another, but I think I'd feel a bit guilty nowadays. Thanks for making my heart skip a beat with this video.
Older bikes are great no having to leave it on a trickle charger or the day you can get it out ,, the alarm or something has the battery drained,, smashing looking machine,, from northern Ireland ☘️😲😲☘️😲
Had a test ride on a Titan from a dealer in 1974 as a callow 18yo...came to corner and it resisted any urging to turn...took it back and eventually got something 7! inches shorter wheelbase...RD350 :)
Had a 1970 Suzuki 500 when I was in the Army. Great bike. Fast and reliable, and that beautiful 2 stroke whine when she was revving! It would, however, vibrate your tail off on long trips. I hated to sell it.
In New Zealand I had one of the last made 500 GTB's. loved it as it had incredible character. Crappy brakes and slower that other Japanese bikes but very reliable and fun to ride. foolishly sold it, something I regret .
A friend owned a T500 it was a very reliable bike. While Hondas an Kawasakis would have be twiked for minutes to get them to start the T500 would just rumble to life after the first kick over on que. Two Stokes bike have kind of magic spell all there own and they keep saying "come take out on the road, it a great day and I want to go out" I never got tired of riding a my Suzuki B120(180cc)..
Why are the newer bikes so ugly & incompetent compared to these ageless classics. We advanced in technology and got dumb f**k in designing and asthetics.
Had a '76 GT500 I bought new. Same basic bike but had bigger tank and a front disk. Many times I've thought how I would still like to have it. Starting it on a cool morning and listening to the pop pop and watching and smelling the smoke almost made it worth having to go to work.
My dad had one in 1970s what a beautiful fantastic bike.. I actually got to ride his bike for 2 weeks while my Honda was in the shop.. drove by my friends revving the engine showing off.. my dad sold it and bought a Suzuki gs750 four .. he regretted selling the GS500
in the 70s i had a lend of a pink one while my H2 was in the garage, had it for a week got memories of a nice well mannered bike. would like another now for those summer runs round our lovely countryside
An absolute beauty, I had an AP50 & an A100 and would have liked to have owned a T500. They're worth hanging on to because they're making a come back and I let all my old bikes go for next to nothing. My dream bike would be a Honda CB750. The early ones are stunning but I'd be happy with any model between 1969 & 1981 because the Honda CB750F is awesome.
Couple of years ago a retiring work colleague “gave” me his Honda CBX 750F, a 1983/4 model. An interesting machine as it has hydraulic valve gear and the oil runs in the frame to and from the integrated oil cooler. First four cylinder bike I’ve ever owned!
Beautiful. Looks like new. Thanksforsharing.
Two stroke soul music!
This was the good old time , when bikes was beautifull .......... old biker from france ....
Agree/Accepter!
Tis a thing of beauty.
maybe we could bring them back using vegetable oil?

Just loved my T500. Toured Europe on it two up and even over Mont Blanc! lots of bits broke but she got me home to the UK none the less. Miss her!
Sure do miss mine.
I had that very bike. Bought it new and paid $1250
I had one many years ago. Great bike, but braking was frightening. Yours is a beautiful bike♥️
Great for out braking people unintentionally lol
See my comment about Ferodo Greens.
Biutiful well kepted bike that mate. I'm saving up for a 750 bulldog.🙂👌
48 HP in 500 cc. Only thing that killed it off was 2 cycle.
Great fun with needle in the red at each gear change - which I bet this machine has never done!
sweet

Buddy in Canada had a yellow one
I had the good luck to borrow one years ago. It bounded along like a thing possessed! 😁
hard to love a smoker nowadays, but t500 was a very good bike.
好漂亮.
Sounds like a 500cc boat outboard 2 Stroke engine idling under water !!
My second bike, a '74 T500L in deep metallic red. Only issue was the exhaust seals between headers and silencers used to fail.
cosa. costano suzuchi titan
I owned a T500 j years ago, fun bike. I would like to own one of those again.

今時、2ストのこの騒々しい音＋煙は公害⁉️いや、それはまさに青春を駆け抜けた魂そのものです！スズキはこういうバイクで地道に技術を 磨いて現在では名の通った大会社になった❣️これからもスズキを応援します。
The Titan 500 holds a special place in my heart, it was my first bike. I thought all bikes handlebars buzzed like crazy.
Damn! What a beautiful unit!

Had a friend that had one of these. 1st gear seemed to go forever.
A young man had one back in the early 70s. I remember the smoke smell and sound.
素晴らしいバイク！🥰♥️♥️♥️🇯🇵 大事にされて下さい！
