The '''Suzuki T500''' is a [[motorcycle]] produced by [[Suzuki]] from 1970 to 1975. | |||

While it was along with the [[Kawasaki W1|650 Kawasaki W1]] the most powerful Japanese production bike, it was also a [[two-stroke]]. Could it swallow all that power? What would be its consumption of gas, oil and spark plugs? Most importantly, would such a machine prove reliable? | When the '''[[Suzuki]] T500''' was unveiled in 1967, the experts hedged their bets.
