About the Suzuki T500
Service parts for the T500 two-stroke twin, from ignition points to engine gaskets.
Suzuki’s T500 is a large-capacity two-stroke twin, giving it a different engine layout from the GT380 triple. This collection supports engine resealing, clutch service, fork repairs and contact-point ignition maintenance. Gaskets, friction or steel plates, and ignition points perform different jobs; use the repair links below to choose the component you need and check its individual T500 year application.
Plan a twin-cylinder restoration by system
An engine gasket set should match the joints being opened, while a clutch order needs the correct plate types and quantities. The listed friction and steel plates have different T500 year ranges. Keep T500 and GT500 applications separate unless a specific product explicitly lists both.
Know your T500 before choosing partsT500 repair checkpoints
Engine gasket coverage
The featured gasket set lists T500 for 1971–1975. Check the package before dismantling; crankshaft seals and other internal parts should not be assumed included.
Clutch plate differences
The featured clutch plate lists 1968–1971, while the steel plate lists 1968–1975. Both are individual components, not complete clutch packs.
Fork-seal measurements
The listed 1970–1975 fork-seal set measures 34 × 46 × 10.5 mm. Match the removed seals and inspect the fork tubes before replacement.
Identify your motorcycle before orderingT500 identification checklist
Use the motorcycle’s identification and the fitted component together. A registration year or family name can leave important application details unresolved.
- Confirm T500 rather than relying on the appearance of another Suzuki two-stroke model.
- Record frame and engine markings and establish the model year.
- Compare the fitted contact-point assembly, clutch plate pattern or fork-seal dimensions for the job.
Contact PartsNMore with the model year, frame and engine markings, and clear photos of the component being repaired.
