The 500 was another rendition of the 600. It has the exact same engine only with a different bore and stroke. I know of one in Mexico, but I think he blew up the engine and put in a 600 engine instead. I have never heard of another one since.

Funny how time blurs the memory the west Indies had the 500 (only two came thro the shop) seemed small like the 400's we got later. Now the 600, same frame as the 500, seems quite big compared to say the Ducati Monster I tried out before buying the FZR6
