Suzuki GT550 2 Stroke Triple First Ride
1973 Suzuki GT550 Indy 3 Cylinder 2 Stroke First Ride in 10 Years!
After a long nap, it's time to wake up this GT550. In the previous episodes of this series, I cleaned the carburetors, restored the gas tank and installed a new battery, air filters, fuel line with filter and petcock. Then, I started the bike up on the 3rd kick but it smoked like a choochoo train indicating possible blown crank seals. Watch this video to see me take this bike on its first test ride and see if it continues to smoke or not!

Did you sand the paint before clear ?
The orange yes but the silver no since it's a metallic paint and you really shouldn't sand those much.
that must smell great
Your poor neighbors lol
It's blown
❤❤
Something’s wrong because my 06 WRXTR got 24-26 mpg and I live where there’s a lot of hills too.
I always loved the GT Two Stroke Tripples , the GT750 liquid cooled in 1971 .
RAM air model !
The '90's T100's are a bit more practical than the Tacoma. The little extra width makes doing tasks a whole lot easier.
3 cyl and 4 pipes on 2 stroke....Very bad idea...Not good at all...
Had a buddy with one of these back in the early '80's. Nearly killed himself on it and there was no way I'd get on it. They did sound awesome though!
You use. A 2k laquer over enamel paint ?
Yes, they are compatible. The 2k clearcoat makes the tank fuelproof. Enamel paint is only fuel resistant.
Those triples were beasts Kawasaki as anyone knows had the H seies
This is a suzuki 550 triple...it wasn't as fast as a kawasaki but sure handled better
How much $?
Back in the day I had a Kawasaki 750 2-stroke. I’m glad to see someone saved that fine bike. Enjoy it bud
Turn it into a cafe racer.
🤓😎 I have a 76 gt185. Beautiful bikes.
Add 3 minutes and 25 seconds the audio takes a crap
With modern oil 32:1 is probably gonna be very rich.
Oil fuel ratio has nothing to go with richness of carbie ,
Plus 32.1 is very little oil at all , KX Two Strokes use 15.1 or 20 .1 that's way more oil .
@@JosephCowen-fz8vj did I say the air fuel ratio would be rich? No, I don’t think I did. I didn’t mention the “carbie”.
@@JosephCowen-fz8vj no one is running modern oils at 15:1. There’d be so much spooge it’d clog the muffler packing, and be leaving out of the expansion chamber.
@@mikea5923 buddy if you knew anything about motors the word RICH only refers to air/fuel ratio ! By using that word you did refer to carbie Air/fuel ratio. No one calls oil /fuel ratios rich or lean as it creates confusion ! And as stated even with new two stroke oils 32 to 1 is very lite mix , little oil at all . Also as stated my KX 500 2002 model runs all day on 15 to 1 that is a heavy fuel/oil mix .
Hi, do you know the thickness was it 10 or 15mm?
Stock ecu?
Yep, mine is tuneable.
@@GoldGuyRides Do you know if the 1.5 2006 ECU is also there? Is yours the 2.0? and still alive? At least how many horses did you make?
@@dmwelds8960 no I don't know, sorry. I didn't even know they made a 1.5 engine in 2006. Is it JDM or euro? Mine is a 2.5 liter and yes it's still alive. I have never had it on a Dyno to truly know the HP but I would guess it's around 300.
@@GoldGuyRides How can I see if it's the JDM version? Mine is an EL15 manual gearbox.. I was thinking about getting the 2.0 N/A and converting it to turbo or even this one, what do you say? Did I need an ECU or is this available?
I love 2 strokes I had a suzuki rgv 250 🥰 a 250cc v twin 2 stroke great bike lots of fun to ride
Where on gods green earth do you live? Its beautiful. Im from California, so its just freeways, & traffic for as far as the eye can see. But yeah, that feeling you're talking about, i could live there.
Great stuff! Love watching all your videos!
Not going to do anything too crazy, just a few rolling burnouts 🤷🏽♂️👀😂
Well over 400 not even few min into video smh
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 😉
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 That’s just part of my comment , a classic bike like that being abused in that condition , trying to wheelie it and spin the rotted out tyre . Just my opinion mate , not rite
@@matwom 😂😂😂. I'm just riding it how it was designed to be ridden.
@@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 .
What is that huge weld on the case? Nice work men!!!
It was like that when I got the bike, I'm guessing the cover was cracked and they welded it up to repair it. It doesn't leak anything so it must be a good repair!
Whats power? Is Alive bafore 6 years?
Are the tires changeable so that it can go off road?!?!
Just got mine,similar upgrades coming in the mail. I also ordered a 13 tooth front sprocket, for that lower end torque. Dont need the high end as much with what i plan to do.
Maybe the gearbox oil leaked into the crankcase(s). If any crank seals are shot, the idle speed, even for a two stroke, will be too high and very erratic. Ignition timing accuracy is critical on these or it's hole in piston time. The 32:1 was good insurance as the oil feed was an unknown. Good resurrection.
How did it hold up?
So far so good!
I got the exact one except cheep
I just got one of these Chinese style scooters for my kid 230 bucks I look out front and my ten year old is doing 40 down the street … I’m like what the heck..,, I got on it and was like ya no . I’ll get you a different one
i had one of these, a very good road bike. it performs well, minimum maintenace. all you need.
that reverb on your voice to funky break beat. sick vibe lol. ur cool.
Oh, I so miss my GT380s, they were my favourite bikes of all time 😞
Heh the smoke rings from the pipes are cool
I absolutely love my gt750! I've actually never opened it up because it is scary fast
Great bikes had a few of these , slowly finding parts to make another , later aluminium frame ,usd,discs modern rubber
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 😃🏴🏴🏴🐑
Yup, new tires and send it!
bro that wheelie fail cause the tire's too hard/old is the reason why i gave you thumbs up lmao
Keep the magic 2 strokes alive, fantastic another one resuscitated. You a 2 stroke hero 😂🏆🎖🏅well done, people must not scrap these machines.
New tires Mason and then take it on the highway and top it up,wanna see if it does more than my kawasaki kz750 twin.
That things freaking awesome, I want one 😩
Great job! 2 smokers forever:) Keep up the great work.
Nice! Pour some c12 in it!
Thanks Randy! What's C12? Never heard of it
