what were suzuki doing?

the uk model had white/blue pinstripe paint job, bikini fairing and modded pipes, plus some´oribble tweaks to the carbs - more flat spots than a witches tit!

however. lets not get too critical because this was my first ride on a litre machine and my pants got very warm and smelly!!

a very silly bike for the road at the time and stupidly fast.. ok I know modern tackle is even faster, but remember these had skinny rubber and brakes made from toffee!

best laugh was ´dragging´ this for the locals in france along the prom at la rochelle in ´82 - my mate was a generous lad - bless his sole - as he would lend me this rubber burner when he became very ****. He seemed to think I was the more sober one and was a more responsible rider in order to get us back to the camp site!!... very misled!!

great bike and superb value - don´t think he ever did wipe off the yellow headlight paint. Any way it it didn´t lastlong as it was a precursor to us frightening ourselves stuipid on the road, so we both brought 350YPVS´s to proddy race.. oh hum
