1976 Suzuki GT750 Registration no. KDR 641P Frame no. 70566 Engine no. 77450 Launched at the Tokyo show in 1971, Suzuki's new GT750 flagship was, as its name suggests, more Gran Turismo than outright sports bike. First of a family of Suzuki two-stroke triples, the newcomer retained the cylinder dimensions of the existing T500 air-cooled twin, but with the added refinements of water-cooling and an electric starter. Top speed was around 115mph, but more important was the effortless cruising capability. Modifications were not long in coming, the GT750K gaining twin front disc brakes (replacing the original double-sided drum) for 1973. This restored example was acquired from Classic Bikes Northwest in March 2014 (purchase invoice on file). Last run earlier this year and described as in generally good condition, the machine is offered with a V5C document, a quantity of MoTs (most recent expired March 2015), and bills totalling circa £1,300 for restoration work carried out in 2007. Fußnoten As with all Lots in the Sale, this Lot is sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.
