1991 Solifer-Suzuki S1

Owner: Tomi Riihiaho,
Karjaa Finland

Purchased: Winter 2002

Modifications: New muffler (see even the
page 40 for more comments and pictures of the same bike).

Comments: Me and my father modified the new pipe
from the old black one, it took about four to five hours for the
both of us. It looks nicer and cooler now, sounds almost the same
and the machine power is the same. I'm really glad about this
modification, since it looks great! The old pipe as seen on the
pictures, is lower and the new is upper so I think it's better
:-)

RB50) on pages 57 and 64.

1979 Suzuki GS 850 G

Owner: Raymond George Hendy, Oldbury, West Midlands, England

Comments: I purchased the
bike in October 2003 from a friend who bought it in August 1984.
It as had three owners and has done over 53,000 miles. It was
first registered in August 1979.

The Windjammer fairing was on when I had it so I assume it was
always a part of the bike. As you will see from the photo it is
in excellent condition and I still ride it about.

The bike is heavy to ride, 289 kg, but it is great and looks very
smart. I love it although the brakes need careful handling (solid
discs).

I am with the bike on first of the pictures and my grandson George
Joseph Hendy is sitting on the bike in the last one.

It cost me just over £300 to get it fit for the road again
as it had been stored for five years.

1996 Suzuki GSX 75 0F

Owner: John Dempsey, Melbourne, Australia

Comments: The build date of
my bike is 8/95 and is a GSX750FT, the VIN is JS1GR78A000500804.

I bought it in November 2001 and it is the first Suzuki I have
ever owned, always had Hondas before.

I love the Suzuki. It's quick and nimble. A really nice package
of smoothness, reliability, low maintenance, and heaps of fun.
And we have the best mountain roads in the world on this side
of Melbourne.

2003 Suzuki GSX 1400

Owner: Enar Gustavsson,
Alingsås, Sweden

Comments: Turning and braking simultaneously at 30 kph
gives this result. The bike tipped over on its left side and
came to a grinding halt on the tarmac. I dipped my head and
left shoulder into ground and fractured left upper arm (tuberculum
majus and collum chirugicum). Left hip got bruised but not broken.

The full protective all-weater gear was worn, it became shredded
where it made contact with the ground. Plastic reinforcements
in the gear stayed in place and did their job.

My passenger got some minor bruises, she was nearly asleep when
the accident occured.

It was a surprise to me that the upper fork legs would break
(or bend) that easy, I did not hit anything with the front wheel
except the road. It must have been the friction between the
tyre on the fully turned front wheel and the tarmac, that caused
the forks to bend.

The reason for me breaking and turning was a 50cc moped rider
that thougt he was the only one using the road. He lost a clutch
lever and a rear wiew mirror. My bike is a write-off.

1980 Suzuki RM 400

Owner: Massimo Pipino,
Torino, Italy

Comments: This is the bike I used to ride in vintage MX
championship. It's a Suzuki RM400. It was built in 1979 and I
bought it two years ago.

It is in its original shape. The only thing I replaced is the
handlebar, because i prefer the shape of Renthal.

The bike is very easy to ride, powerful but not brutal like, for
example, the later KTM 495/'91. It's not too heavy and you can
ride it like it was a 250cc.

Great bike!
