Suzuki Nuda concept bike
shown at Tokyo Motor Show 1986

The Nuda was a concept bike (a one of a kind experimental model, not for sale), shown at the Tokyo Motor Show in November 1986. It was a high-tech dream bike that never went to production. It is claimed that the previous year's Suzuki concept bike Falcorustyco was a non-running exhibition model with a fake engine, but the Nuda was a fully operational bike good for 280 km/h, using a GSX-R750 engine. Like the Falcorustyco, even the Nuda two-wheel drive and hub-steer, but while the Falcorustyco had hydraulics drive, the Nuda used a more conventional shaft drive (if you say that two-wheel drive on a motorcycle is conventional). Nuda had even some other high-tech features that have not yet gone into production. Please send me more info if you know anything more. Perhaps you could scan magazine articles for us all to see?
