The Suzuki Motor Co. was established in 1909 by Michio Suzuki to produce machinery for the cotton industry, moving on to motorcycles after WW2. These proved to be an immediate success and by the early 60s were second only to Honda in output. Better known for their two-strokes, Suzuki joined the four-stroke revolution in 1977 with the GS750, a bike that matched European standards of handling but with the Japanese build quality and performance levels. This launched a full range of four-stroke singles, twins and four-cylinder bikes with the GS/GSX250 being many motorcyclist's first bike.
This bespoke 'Brat Bike' has been built around a 1981 Suzuki GS250. The rebuild included powder coating the frame, a bodywork repaint, custom handlebars and light mounts and its crowning glory a curvaceous handmade two-into-one exhaust system, together with many other detail touches. Bought by the vendor early last year and used during the summer, it stopped running in November and the vendor has not had the time and space to investigate the fault, so it is being offered as a No Reserve project. The engine was swapped during the rebuild, but the original engine will be included in the sale together with a current V5C.
