75 Suzuki RE5 Rotary Bike

:party:

Pics or BANhammer, seriously, i wanna see more. THe last set of pics were from DGRR. Are they all the same color?

Vids? sounds?

sweet! there is a guy down the street from my work that deal in RE5 parts. I've seen over a dozen at this shop.

They are not all the same color. FCZach's is black, and I have seen one on eBay that was silver.

Chad, are you on crack?

oh snaps! p ics. I like the red.

If I was I would be the size of Paul Jr.

And yes, they came in silver, blue, red, orange, and black.
I actually have found a blue one that I want to buy since I was gonna paint this one blue. So I might have two RE5's soon.

How is it running? Very nice pick-up. Have fun.

Like u need another thing Chad :rofl: Jk Jk, nice find :)

I hear ya......

Well I think I have all the details on a blue RE5 worked out and will be picking it up soon.
So...... I will be selling this 1975 Red RE5 but I will be keeping the side bags.
$2500

Nice :D

I like the suitcase things on the side... LOL!

Looks good!

:rofl: Not much of a bike guy are you Phil? :D

Sweet! Nice luggage, still never seen that in person.

Now you need to join us over at http://re5rotary.proboards85.com/index.cgi

Trade you the FC for the FB and the RE-5?

Come on now!

To answer some questions:

It does run and shifts fine, but it will need some work hence the price of $2500.
I have not had anytime to go over the bike. I have found some small problems and want to soak it in seafoam then a few oil changes.
If it ran perfect the price would be much higher.
This RE5 is not like most as it has the cover over the gauges and matching tail light, hard to find.
Some small repairs and elbow grease would make this a sweet bike.

Also, If I cant get the blue one I will keep this one.

Avoiding me huh?

Bah! Damn you are busy!!! Almost like you are me or something!

Yep, I'm trying.
Really though I am getting ready to step up in a new position and well told the Chief I wanted a few classes before that happens so he is approving them. Gotta get em while I can.

What are you trying to get into? Fire Science/Forensics?

My step dad teaches those classes around the country sometimes. He was in Boston last month and Oklahoma a few months back, and has a regular semester Fire Science/Hazmat class he teaches at the local community college. When he retires, he wants to move down here somewhere and do freelance Arson Investigation.

mmm... crack

Your not right Paul!!!!!
