Would be lovely to be able to say it was yours, but I don't know how much time you'd be able to spend riding it.  It certainly wouldn't be road legal here in Oz.
Also, the 2 factory GP500 replica bikes were/are miles ahead in terms of practicality.
My preference is the RG500, but the RZ500 is OK too if you have ducks' disease and don't mind the extra weight. :-)

Cheers,

I'll just have to take me chances, huh?  Although I was at Bathurst when Dowson was on the RZ back in 85.  I was in love with the RZ until 1. I tried to sit on it and my knees wouldn't fit under the scallops on the tank, and 2. I saw the beautiful RG with the alloy frame.  The RZ never had a look in after that.
