- The RS500GP is totally road registerable
- Only AUD$21,000
- Currently developing supermotard via WR450 chassis, registerable.
I love my Hyper, it even has tourability via lazy torque and good ergonomics but I am always drawn to 'smaller and lighter' over 'bigger and more power'.
Currently I have time/work constraints that don't allow full day/weekend rides and the RS500 would make a fantastic promo tool/track bike.
Only downside, re-sale value would be a slab or two. (2 cartons of beer).

The RS500GP looks like a fun track bike.

Actually...

That's only about $13,500 dollars US... Pretty much a steal given all that goes into it and the fact it's pretty much handbuilt.
Wonder how much it would cost to have one shipped here?
Can't wait to see somebody test one.

Hey Yota, I have CR 500 that I use exclusively for sand riding. I also have a Honda 450 R that I ride alot also. The 500 feels faster, because the power hits all at once. But actually the 450 is faster because the power gets to the ground in a more even way. I much prefer the 450 now, but spent many years riding the 500. My buddy had the AF version, very nice bike. The 500 vibrates alot, numbing the hands. The 450 is smooth as silk.
Mike

l do love that video!!! Looks like some real authentic high performance bike testing there  The bike pulls up on a side road and the guys mom puts it on the bike stand, the rider has no helmet and another dude is wearing sandles. Yeah a real testing ground for a high performance 2 stroke bike...Ghezzi  Take my advice, keep Hyper, or if your interested I have a bridge I coul sell you cheap.
