The Suzuki Motor Co. was established in 1909 by Michio Suzuki to produce machinery for the cotton industry. An initial diversification into 4-wheeled transport was curtailed by WW2 but after the war, Japan had a need for cheap reliable transport so Suzuki, like a lot of others around the world, began to produce clip-on engines for pushbikes. These proved to be an immediate success and soon they were making full motorcycles and by the early 1960s were second only to Honda in number of two-wheelers manufactured. The oil-cooled GSXr750 was launched in 1985 and revolutionized the sports bike market, eventually spreading out to include race replicas from 250cc to 1100cc models. By the early 1990s the bikes became water-cooled to comply with noise regulations but the 'Gixxer' range kept its reputation as the headbangers choice.
This GSXr600 has been part of a large and fascinating collection of bikes ranging from the 1980s up until the early 2000s. The vendor has enjoyed searching out examples of more or less all of the bikes he either owned or wanted in the day, but after amassing over 30 assorted models from a Honda MT50 through to a couple of Bimotas he's decided to downsize his collection. Finished in classic Suzuki Blue and White race colours, it’s rare to find an SRAD 600 still in essentially standard and original condition, fitted with a Micron end can. Run earlier this year but may need recommissioning, it comes supplied with a current V5C.
