| 1962 Suzuki magazine article from USA (single page). ”New from Japan, Suzukis for 1962” The two models presented here was the 50MC, later called ”Classic 50” and the 250TB, renamed ”El Camino” in the US.
I'm not actually sure if the TB model was ever sold in America, I believe the model that ended up in the shops was the 250TC that became the Suzuki T10. If you look closely you can see that it says Colleda and not Suzuki on the side cover. The model was sold as Colleda 250TB in Japan, the motorcycle brand name Suzuki was yet to be established there. The article was published in Cycle World magazine, March 1962. |
