wavydavy Posted April 3, 2009 Report Posted April 3, 2009 stumbled accross this on the RD500LC Club de France site Anybody know what it is? This one? It's difficult to work out which one you mean... Dave
ashley Posted April 3, 2009 Author Report Posted April 3, 2009 This one? It's difficult to work out which one you mean... Dave Yeah sorry Dave, I know what that is no problem. It's the silver bike with the Swiss flag emblem on the tank. Looks like it's disc valve induction and the engine (what you can see of it) looks like it maybe came out of a snowmobile. Here we go Dave http://simon-fuller.fotopic.net/p57281914.html I must get an image shack account

Polaris snomobile engine in a bike made by Rob Tuluie. HTH Dave

Jay Posted April 3, 2009 Report Posted April 3, 2009 Holy shit!! Look at the size of the spannies on that!! Wahooo, I want a go...
MonkeyJim Posted April 3, 2009 Report Posted April 3, 2009 These two are sexy as fook tho... This one is - fooking 'ell. I've got wood. I'm guessing, but that looks like an Aprilia RSV frame & swing arm? Me likey!!!!!!
FlatTel Posted April 3, 2009 Report Posted April 3, 2009 Well i would imagine it has to have something to do with Eskil Suter...... its not based on the MuZ as its clearly a twin, but has to be something to do with him with that paintjob and emblem
ashley Posted April 3, 2009 Author Report Posted April 3, 2009 Have a quick listen and lookieeee at this lads, audio bliss!!! I've had this pic on file for God knows how long, I wish I'd bought one in the 80's !!!

AMR Posted April 3, 2009 Report Posted April 3, 2009 http://www.melly-bike.com/ This should be the bike in question... Sorry, I don´t understand french, maybe somebody can translate it..
Jay Posted April 3, 2009 Report Posted April 3, 2009 http://www.melly-bike.com/ This should be the bike in question... Sorry, I don´t understand french, maybe somebody can translate it.. Dunno much french but it looks like.. 800cc Twin two stroke 180PS? 135Kg Frame and engine cases are integral and machined out of a single 450KG block of Billet Water jet machining used for several parts Thats about as much as I can gleam out of the site.. Good find BTW Edit> Maybe WD or someone can help with the translation?
brad Posted April 3, 2009 Report Posted April 3, 2009 Seriuosly, buy one of these you will die!!!, if anyone has one they want to lend me to see if im correct, feel free....................
Kayla Posted April 4, 2009 Report Posted April 4, 2009 This one is - fooking 'ell. I've got wood. I'm guessing, but that looks like an Aprilia RSV frame & swing arm? Me likey!!!!!! No, I think it's Yamaha TZR bits. Reverse cylinder frame and v-twin swingarm?
mgtkr1 Posted April 4, 2009 Report Posted April 4, 2009 looks like v twin tz to me unless its 3xv tzr? definitly yamaha though which makes it even more appealing. is the blue/yallow bike with beam frame (one the same behind it with diffrent coulrs) an rg500 based motor? i think it belongs to a french sprint champion who knows how to ride very quick and tune the rg500 to mad hp levels witrh his eyes shut. kinda like randy norian and mick dent.
willbloke Posted April 9, 2009 Report Posted April 9, 2009 No, I think it's Yamaha TZR bits. Reverse cylinder frame and v-twin swingarm? I think the swinger is 3XV/4DL , I'll have to look at the frame hung up in my garage to check if it's 3MA
