1972 Suzuki TS 125

Owner: Don Barnes
Cincinnati, Ohio USA

Comments: ”I found your site on Suzukis and thought I'd pass along this picture from 1972 of my TS125R.

I bought it new and other than replacing the odd bit that got broken in the dirt, it is mostly stock. I raced it motocross for several years.

It was fat, handled well, and for a wee lad at the time, it was quite a handful. I bout it in 1971, but believe it was a 1972 model. As you can see, mine was in blue. I believe it also came in red that year.

Thanks for the site. It brings back memories.

I currently live near Cincinnati, Ohio USA, but back then I lived in Atlanta Georgia. The picture was taken in a northern suberb called Sandy Springs.

That bike just ran and ran. I actually had a woman purchase a brand new Ford Pinto and pull off the dealer lot in front of me when I was going about 60 mph. The personal results were painful, but surprisingly I had no broken bones. The poor 125 was stuck in the back seat of the Pinto with one fork sheared off at the triple tree, the other bent at a 90 degree angle, tank - instruments-handlebars were all mangled. End result? They fixed my 125 and totaled her car! I rode that bike for about five years before giving to a friend of mine.

I'm helping another friend bring a TS185R back to life now. Amazing how similar they are, and that I can actually remember how all the pieces fit together!”

Suzuki '73 GT-250 GT 250

The successor of the T-250, both 250cc 2-strokers with a 6-speed gearbox. This is Joe's 1973 GT250K he used to own. ”I sold the bike for £100 so I had just over three years transport for nothing... As soon as I started to drive cars all I have ever done is to lose money in large amounts...”

1973 Suzuki GT 250

Owner: Joe Balmer, North East England

Comments: ”I purchased the 1973 GT250K in 1978, it had stood uncovered for a year in a garden of its orginal owner. Its front brake had no pads, its CCI oil tank was empty... So I was concerned its bearings may have been starved of oil, more of that later...

Anyway I bought it for £50 and took it home. It turned out to need very little work, mainly cosmetic to make it look presentable and roadworthy. However after a few months of riding a noise started that turned out to be an outer main bearing. This failure I put down to its obvious oil starvation.

Engine stripped new bearing in place it was back on the road, used daily for work and pleasure. It gave me three years of service, chain/sprockets being the only further major purchase.

It was faster than a mates GT250A that was only a year old. All in I loved it and even after riding a Yamaha 250 DX that made the Suzuki feel dated I would still not have exchanged. It just had a bigger bike feel to me. Note everyone the fork gaiters, later models without them had shot fork sliders in no time, mine were mint, progress for you.

The only gripe I had with the bike was its hunger for plugs. I used the correct grade and rode hard but still they packed up.”

1984 Suzuki GS 550 EF

Owner: Mario Barone, Canada

Comments: ”Hi my name is Mario, I'm from Coquitlam, British Columbia, Canada. I have been looking for a Suzuki bike since I got my motorcycle licence last summer.

I bought a 1984 GS 550 EF this fall. It has been re-painted, although I belive the decals are original but i'm not too sure about the gold pinstripes. The bike handles great and is very responsive.

It's my first bike, but I would recommend one to anybody just starting out, I love it.”

1999 Suzuki GSX 750 F Katana

Owner: Dave Elgear, Canada

Comments: ”I purchased it used from a dealer in Ottawa, Canada in February 2003, and have since accumulated over 13K km's of pure, trouble free pleasure this season.

It always started up and ran flawlessly, and all I had to do was the regular service to it.

I have replaced the stock sprockets and chain with a -1 in the front and an O-ring type unit, added a Hindle slip-on super-sport round exhaust and a custom Braada Concepts Racerback solo cowl.

It never fails, I get compliments on my bike everywhere I go, even from the Supersport Gixxer crowd.”

1979 Suzuki GS 850 G

Owner: Raymond G Hendy,
Birmingham UK

Comments (Alan Hendy): ”This is my father's first motorcycle in 40 years, my mother made him buy it. It's a 1979 GS850 with 50+k on the clock.

He is the 3rd owner in 24 years. he bought it for £300 in October 2003 in the condition you see in the pictures.

He was a mad football fan until he bought the bike and is now spending his spare time on the bike.

My mother can't wait to get on the back of it (she already has all the gear) but he is trying to get used to the foot brake being on the right hand side before he even thinks of carrying a pillion.”

1997 Suzuki VZ 800 Marauder

Owner: Joe Melito, Wilmington,
North Carolina USA

Purchased: April 2001

Mods: New paint, custom skull on tank, Cobra slip on pipes, Chrome radiator cover, engine guards, cruising pegs, headlight brim, lots of chrome

Comments:

Likes: ”Nice riding bike, smoother than most cruisers, great pick up and with the new pipes and no baffles it makes Harley Davidson owners cry it's so loud and great sounding.”

Dislikes: ”Carbs hard to work on even for a trained mechanic, two different carbs running off the same cable — biggest problem with the bike. Dealer certified mechanic is the only person to work on this bike.”

1984 Suzuki GS 1150 E

Owner: Joe Dunderdale, Calgary, Alberta Canada

Purchased: February 2002

Comments: ”I have a 84 GSX1150 a bike I dreamed quite a bit about when I was a kid. I bought it crashed and bashed and it was gonna be split and sold off for parts.

I talked my mate who owns the bike dismatlers to sell it to me and I took to it with a hack saw.

It hadled terrible when I first bought the machine. I thought because of the damage to the fairing clocks etc, the frame was bent, but it soon was obvious that due to the lack of original maintenace the tires were shot and the swinging arm pivet bolt was finger tight.

I bought a set of Bridgestones and tightened the swinging arm and anything else I could find and had an awesome summer riding with my buddies.

It's 20 below centigrade here and the bikes tucked up for the winter.”
