1974 Suzuki T 500 L

1972 Suzuki GT 750 J

1974 Suzuki GT 750 L

1984 Suzuki GS 1100 GKE

Owner: Bruce Clifford,
Queensland Australia

Comments: The first Suzuki that I owned, and the
first new bike was a 1969 TS 250, and was purchased in Blacktown
NSW for $Au 690 in 1973. My second new Suzi was a 1973 GT750K,
purchased in July 1973 in Gladstone, Queensland. The new price
was $Au 1599. This bike was fitted with a Dusting sidecar.

An accident in Sydney in 1975 destroyed it, so a 1974
T500 L was purchased in Penrith NSW for $Au 800. The T500 proved
like the other two to be capable of handling anything that was
asked of them, long distance or short riding.

1984 back in Gladstone Queensland another GT750, an
A this time, was purchased for $Au 1200. It had triple expansion
chambers and had been ported, performance excellent.

The following year in Kingaroy Queensland I bought another
GT, a GT750 L. It was standard except for chambers and a Rickman
fairing.

1991 I purchased a DJP sidecar and fitted to the L,
which had a leading link front end fitted and a modified rear
wheel that had 135x15 car tyre fitted, both items I fabricated
myself, This bike also has given no trouble, it now runs a standard
exhaust system works better with the chair fitted.

My son owns a GT750 J and is presently restoring it
to standard. It's fitted with a K disc brake front end and 3
into 1 chamber. It seems that GT's run in the family...

1997 I purchased a Kawasaki
Z1300 a 1981 model fitted with Krauser panniers, a 6 into
1 exhaust and tow bar, nice bike with power to burn, but too
heavy when touring two up so in 1998 I bought a '84 Suzuki GS1100
GKE in Brisbane Queensland for $Au 3500 + the Z1300. It had
been repainted, rechromed, and fitted a stainless steel exhaust
and towbar. Completed 28,000 km again with no troubles. Good
fuel consumption, did long trip two up and pulling a trailer.
Just sold it in May 2003 to fund another project.

1988 Suzuki GS 125E

1991 Suzuki PV 50

Owner: Aleksi Joensuu, Tuusula Finland

Purchaced: June 4, 2003 (GS125)
Autumn 2001 (PV50)

Mods: The exhaust pipe is claimed to come from a Jawa
250. Sounds raw and masculine. The original pipe was coated
Black and a bit longer

Comments: I've got a Suzuki '88 GS125. I don't
know if it's the E, S or ES version, I'm not sure of the differences
between them.

I just opened up the carb after having some really odd
trouble with the idle and found out that the carburettor needle
was completely loose. The lock ring was gone and it was causing
the carburettor to go nuts with idle revs up to 9,000 rpm, then
suddenly shutting down.

I bought it recently for 650 €, don't know if it's
a good deal or not. It starts immidiately and the only real
faults are a depleted battery and the stuff with the idle. It
seems that the idle is going to be pretty simple to fix, so
I hope I will have the bike going as soon as I can get the lock
ring from the local bike shop.

I also filled up the battery and recharged it, and changed
the engine oil. Next I will propably clear the exhaust of all
the crap collected for 15 years.

I also used to have a '91 Suzuki PV 50 (er, well, it
quickly turned into 60..) moped.

It was really in great condition when I sold it as I
had just finished complete engine reworking and all the brakeshoes
were new and... The replacement parts list is as long as my
arm.

1983 Suzuki GS 1150 E

Owner: Troy Webster, Denver,
USA

Comments: My bike is a '83
Suzuki GS1150, stock chasis with a 44-degree rake and a ten
over swingarm and custom one-piece fiberglass body. The engine
is 1166cc with a falicon crank and rods, JE 13.5 to 1 pistons,
stock tranny with back cut gears and a MRE lockup clutch. The
cylinder head is completely stock with 38mm Mikuni flat slide
carbs. The bike has run a best of 9.70@138 mph at 6 000 ft. elevation.

I've owned it for two years now and love it. I've owned
nothing but Suzuki street bikes for as long as could ride, working
on '82 GS1100 with '92 GSX-R1100 suspension and drive train.
Winter plans on drag bike include big web cams port work to
the head and running alcohol for next season.
The boy sitting on the bike is
Troy's son Brandon. He's five and a diehard speedfreak
already. He has his own motorcycle, Honda XR50R. The picture
was taken in February 2003.
