Back in 1975 when I was 13 and watched my dad purchase a brand new T500, It was delivered to our house on one of those old Suzuki 3 wheeled pickup trucks, I thought that was kind of cool. The bike looked classey with it´s Maui blue paint with gold pin striping. It had lots of chrome and polished aluminum. My Dad kept that bike for years, he drove it all over the state of New Mexico with no problems at all, a real Titan! Now I own one similar to his Titan and I also enjoy riding it. The bike is easy to work on and is a joy to own. Best of all you still can get parts for it. Thumbs \\
