That's my bike. It hadn't been ridden in almost 30 years. Tim told me you could get it running. Great job

Wow, 30 years? That's crazy, I thought it was more like 10! Well it was in surprisingly good shape for not being ridden in 30 years. It runs great, you should be getting it back very soon!

Oh, I so miss my GT380s, they were my favourite bikes of all time 😞

Yes ! New tyres. I sold my Gt550 because it drank more than a sailor that hasn’t seen land for 6 months. Just remember - the oil feed works parallel to the throttle! eg; the engine is doing 5000rpm on a closed throttle means it’s getting a supply of oil that’s just sufficient for tick-over. Please think about this. With the engine and ignition turned off you can set the oil-pump setting and you will see after having removed the oil-pump cover what happens when you open and close the throttle. Best wishes from Düsseldorf Sher 😉

bro that wheelie fail cause the tire's too hard/old is the reason why i gave you thumbs up lmao

I love 2 strokes I had a suzuki rgv 250 🥰 a 250cc v twin 2 stroke great bike lots of fun to ride

Keep the magic 2 strokes alive, fantastic another one resuscitated. You a 2 stroke hero 😂🏆🎖🏅well done, people must not scrap these machines.

Hey my young friend, I rode one of those Suzuki 550 triples back in the day( early 80s) they were quick! New style tires are a must! Gear position indicator was a Suzuki trade mark!!

That has a rubber mounted engine. Check if mount rubbers are bad; I think they are. I have Kwaka H2 750 . Slightly over bored. Love that thing; it's gorgeous !!!!

I'll check the rubbers, thanks.

I have a 1972 gt550 in blue, its hands down my favorite ive ever had, sound and power is amazing.

i had one of these, a very good road bike. it performs well, minimum maintenace. all you need.

I would like to see a full restauration on it😎verry cool bike.grtz from brussels europe

I absolutely love my gt750! I've actually never opened it up because it is scary fast

Great stuff! Love watching all your videos!

Yup, new tires and send it!

That things freaking awesome, I want one 😩

Sounds amazing. Put on new tires.

right on

Nice job on getting it running, if you can get Bridgestone BT45 tyres then this is a good option. I remember back in the 80's a friend of mine had the GT380 was a fun bike as well, keep up the good work

I would like to see some new tires, and foam it up with some good cleaner and a good wash. Then ride it like you stole it :)

Sounds like a plan! 😃

I had a GT550A, the version with twin discs & SRIS. It took corners like a drunk carthorse on roller blades. DO NOT EVER SHUT THE THROTTE OR EVEN LIGHTLY TOUCH THE BRAKESS MID CORNER ON A GT550, because the bike will sit up and force the steering straight!! This is mainly due to the flexible frame and swingarm (I had a Dresda box section swingarm installed on my GT550A to save on underwear cleaning bills). .

Thanks for the tip, I will remember that. I can't spare any underwear.

Not going to do anything too crazy, just a few rolling burnouts 🤷🏽‍♂️👀😂

You probably had oil in the crank, that had to burn out, from sitting so long

You’re absolutely right, that crankcase was full of fuel and oil. Needed an Italian tune up.

Can’t believe you rode that bike that way after stand for 10 years / not even knowing if the oil pumps are working correctly and it’s not even your bike !!!! 😮 The owner must be pulling his teeth out , gold guy you have shocked me , no respect at all , 😮

Watch the previous video, I checked the oil pump and it is working correctly. Also, I have premix in the tank for good measure. Think before you comment.

@@GoldGuyRides I can agree with that but at that level of repair/ restoration it’s a disaster waiting to happen to either you or the bike or both . Iv restored many bikes but that was just silly my friend . Keep up the good work and be safe .

that’s kool 👍I’ve always been Suzuki even the old GT 125 was a little screamer ,the x7 250 was the first 250 to hit 100mph ,and my favourite are the rgv250 and the rg500 😱🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿arteta out / Joey Barton in 😃🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🐑
