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, making all the other manufacturer's offerings obsolete overnight and dominating production-based racing around the world. Suddenly you could go to your local shop and buy a race ready bike over the counter, just take off the mirrors and indicators and race it that weekend. Famously Trevor Nation rode an early GSXr750F to a couple of Formula One World Championship races in Portugal and Spain with his tent strapped on the back, running in the top six in both races until problems with the gear change linkage slowed him down. The GSXr range eventually spread 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 sports bike rider's choice.

This one owner from new water-cooled GSXr750 SRAD is presented in excellent and original condition and comes fitted with a Yoshimura end-can, with the original genuine Suzuki one included in the sale. Recently serviced, the wheels have been powder-coated in original white and the fuel tank has been sealed. It comes fitted with a single seat converter, but the original pillion seat is included in the sale.
