1964 Suzuki M15 Collegian, M15D Varsity and M31 Suzi brochure from USA (2 pages). Click to enlarge. ”Whisk cross campus on a Suzuki? Fedinitely. The Suzuki 55cc Suzi (with its coeducational step-through frame) or the spritely 50cc Collegian (with push button electric starting) will take student, plus books, plus lunch, plus friend back and forth for about 200 miles of cross campus cruising on one single gallon of gas.” No date of printing was mentioned on the this brochure but I believe it's for the 1964 season. Printed in Japan by Dai Nippon |
1964 Suzuki 55/M31 magazine ads from Japan. Click to enlarge. I
found these on a Japanese website. The ads were published in March
(the left one) and April of 1964 in Motorcyclist magazine (Japan). |
1964 Suzuki 50/M30 and Suzuki 55/M31 brochure from Japan (6 pages). Click to enlarge. It took me a while but I
finally found a brochure on the Internet. Unfortunately I don't understand Japanese so I do not know what it says. I believe the Selpet bikes were offered with a single seat or a dual seat, even this brochure shows both options. I'm not sure when the brochure was published but the front page shows an Olympic flag. Tokyo Olympics were held in the summer of 1964. The Games of the 18th Olympiad, the first Olympics to be held in Asia, were staged in Tokyo over 15 days from 10 to 24 October, 1964. |
