Suzuki X-3 (SU-1C)

I have gathered some Suzuki X 3 info on this page. The page is still under construction. I would be grateful of any contributions — sales brochures, magazine ads, magazine articles, pictures, specs, facts, corrections etc. Please scan the material in JPEG format (large enough that all the details are visible) and send them to me. Please tell me the source and the publication date if possible. If you send me pictures of your own bike, please follow these instructions.

2001 Suzuki year code: K1

The X-3, today assembled in the Philippines, is based on the GP100U from 1978, being another low cost, economy version of the Suzuki two-stroke singles When compared to the cheapest Philippine Suzuki model, the X120, the X-3 is a more modern design than its ”big brother” (altghough the X120 has a larger engine, the X-3 is a bit larger dimensioned bike). Both models have drum brakes but the X-3 has steel tube frame (made in the Philippines) and casting at the steering head. The engine is also more modern with a 5-speed gear box with a rotary valve to control the intake. There's also a 123cc model, X-4, with a 6 mm larger bore, 13.5 hp (9.93 kW) power output and 15.5 Nm (1.58 kg-m) torque available in the Philippines but with a similar frame.
