Hi Andy,there is no doubt that the Honda CBR ignition system would work on your Suzuki T500. The problem would be in reprograming the ignitor box, the Honda has a full advance curve, but the two stroke would at the least need a static setting, or preferably a slight advance with a steady retard as it approaches high RPM. Without this a seizure or a holed piston would be very likely, hope this helps. Hope you and Tony are both well, who is riding the new bike , you or Tony ?
