Engine no. U705-405486
Suzuki rewrote the 750-class rulebook when it launched the GSX-R750 on an unsuspecting world back in 1985. Lighter than a 600 and as powerful as a 1,000, it made all other super-sports 750s seem flabby and slow. When the 1,100cc version arrived for 1986, it similarly eclipsed every other big-bore sports bike. 'The acceleration is awesome – like being charged in the back by a rugby scrum,' enthused Bike magazine's tester, attempting to sum up the experience of riding a bike weighing a relatively svelte 450lbs that produced 127bhp and could top 150mph with ease. Equipped with a Laser exhaust system, this early example is described as in generally very good condition and offered with Netherlands registration papers.
Estimate:
£3,200 - 4,000
€3,700 - 4,700
US$ 4,800 - 6,000
