RD 500 (RD500 1GE) - Running with lot of smoke after restoration

Thats a 1985 Yamaha RD 500 (RD500 1GE). Runs perfectly on every cylinder with a output of lots of delicious smoke like a fog-thrower. Absolute amazing "must see" clip for all the people who love 2-stroke motorcycles and engines !

II don't think we'll ever see bikes like this again. Typical 80's excess and way of thinking. And don't we love it!

Monster bike. Great job reminds me of my CRM when she starts from cold I can fog out the whole street!

[@canyamas]

Congratulations. This is the best bike in the world ;)

@eamh2002 Glad im not from America. I love my 2 stroke's

[@derbaroper]

@eamh2002 and many of these diesel engines are 2-strokes, too!!!

When you start it up you'll have to hold your breath for a while hahaha. Best bike ans scarriest bike there is. My bike has a broken piston at the moment. When it is rebuild i'll put some vids on my a51stef channel. PS. this bike has the same colour scene as mine. You don't see them a lot in this colour here in the Netherlands. Most of them are white or yellow.

It seems too much oil was used to coat the internal engine parts during assembly. Excessive smoke on first start up is quite normal and will not burn off until the bike is ridden. I have done many two stroke rebuilds.

Looks like Piper Alfa !!!

[@pgzzz]

If hes Using Castrol 747 in there he has gone through about £10's worth already !

[@eamh2002]

@derbaroper
Yeah, my first thought was only 4-stroke cummins and powerstrokes :p
If you think a TUNED 800nm/6-8litre is strong, take a look at bmw 3litre 272hp diesel with 580nm stock :)

Make a new Video with a extern micro and in Full HD Quality !!!

[@MRkallek91]

more oil coming out those exhausts than is in the engine...

[@eamh2002]

@Honda040life
Ok, some environmentalists try to make illegal then :)

[@balleslikkerjeg]

agrred

[@eamh2002]

It's funny that americans make 2-strokes illegal, but make trucks with 6litre 200hp turbodiesel engines that do 20-30L/100km when they could be reliable with 3litre 200hp turbodiesels doing 10-15L/100km.. Bring 2-smokes back and ban the big diesels eh?;)

[@Addyrgv]

Save the planet or buy a stroker?
Screw the planet it is then...lol
