Motorcycle race, just as Formula 1 automobile racing, have unique following of admirers and supporters. Pattern race is divided in to: off road, and trial competition, each using its own "World Championships." Many prestigious would be the "Grand Prix" road events held in many European countires each year, and bring about the award of rider's trophy and manufacturer's trophy based on the amount of points the motorist and equipment gotten during the season. The Grand Prix's are divided according to the displacement regarding the motorcycle motor, and also the 500cc class is deemed the most notable ranked, many desired racing title. Since 1979, four Japanese manufacturers hace been entering their 500cc course rushing bikes in Grand Prix competition, combined with others, and racing has become more exciting and competitive.

Suzuki's challenge to globe bike competiition were only available in 1960, and so they had been really successful making use of their 50cc and 125cc bikes; however, in 1967 they pulled out of competition within Grand Prix degree, but stayed active and successful in globe motocross competition. In 1974, Suzuki rejoined the Grand Prix circuit with a watch to winning the 500cc competition, but the next two years weren't as effective as they could have liked; but the Suzuki engine Co. wasn't dismayed and continued developing and testing new ideas and ideas, realizing that all would shrtly get together with a big victory. In 1976, they won both maker's trophy and also the rider's trophy because of the exemplary driving of Barry Sheene. Since that time, Suzuki has been around the forefront of 500cc competition on Grand Prix level winning both trophies once more in 1977, as well as the manufacturer's trophy every year from 1976 to 1980. Over these success years, Suzuki happens to be continuously developing and increasing their bikes.

The RGB 500, which won the manufacturer's trophy in 1980 is running on a 4 cylinder, 2 stroke, water-cooled motor of 495cc displacement. The design regarding the motor is within the "Square 4" format, produced by Suzuki in the 1960's to create more energy, plus the 1980 version produces significantly more than 110 horsepower. The leading two cylinders sit in a diminished position than the back two, so your airflow through the radiator just isn't obstructed, and contributes to a diminished center of gravity. This bike has also the "Anti Nose Dive" front forks, that restrict shock strut movement during stopping, plus a complete floating rear suspension system, developed first with regards to their motocross bikes. All of these innovations provide excellent security and handling.
