1989 Suzuki RG 125 Gamma

Owner: Mathieu Tirard, Félines, Ardèche, France

Comments: ”I bought my RG125 a year ago. It's a 1989-year's model.

My bike isn not modified in any ways, except for the muffler. It has been replaced to one with a a better noise.

I think it's a good bike, even if it's only a 125cc motor. The only problem with it is the French law, which limits the 125cc category bikes' maximum power output to 11 kW.”

Jim Doran on his 1986 Suzuki Katana 750 pop-up. ”The only modifications to the bike is the change in colour and the addition of a ’pack rack’.”

1986 Suzuki GSX 750 S Katana

Owner: Jim Doran, Auckland,
New Zealand

Comments: ”Currently the bike is in the garage having a complete engine rebuild, the engine was getting very tired and worn out after 113,000 km. I am guilty of riding hard from time to time, but I have great fun on this bike and intend to keep her for a long time.

This is the ninth bike that i have owned. I have had this particular bike for two years now. Previous bikes include Yamaha RD125LC, Honda CB450E, Honda XL350, Suzuki GSX550ES, Suzuki RF900R. I have been riding motor bikes since I was 12, of course starting with dirt bikes.”

1973 Suzuki GT 250

Owner: Jean-Marie Vandelannoitte, Belgium

Purchased: August 1978

Comments: ”I am the owner the '73 Suzuki GT250 in the pictures. It is in perfect state.

Despite of its 31 years, it is sharp and behaves well on road. It has only 11,400 km on it, it is hardly rode in!

It is all original, except for the luggage rack and the right rear mirror, that is missing.

I'm always in love ...in the sound of the two cylinders and the regard for the other biker I cruised.”

'85 GSX1100 Harris Magnum Two

A couple of pictures of Simon's two Super Sports bikes — ”Kenneth” (the GSX-R1000) and ”Arris” (the Harris Magnum Suzuki).

”The GSX-R1000 is a brilliant bike but normal looking next to the Harris Suzuki.” he says.

The ”Arris” looks great now, thanks to Simon. ”I have a 'before' picture somewhere and it looks real sad — alloy corroded, brakes, engine, electrics completed knackered.”

”I am not an engineer - this was my first project and no details came with the bike. In fact, I cannot buy anything for it and have had to make alot of the parts myself. I get filters and gaskets by sending the old one to the supplier and them matching them up. Not easy.”

2002 Suzuki GSX-R 1000
1985 Suzuki Harris Magnum II


Owner: Simon Pearson,
Bingley, West Yorkshire, UK

Comments: ”My previous bikes have been an old GT 125, GSX 750ES and a GSXR750 L which I swopped for the Harris.

Suzuki GSXR 1000 I bought it 18 months old, 3,800 miles on it. Apart from braided hoses and stuff is all standard. But it is the business performance wise and almost rides itself. Current highlights have been 10.90/130mph standing quarter times and full knee down action for the first time at Croft racing Circuit here in the North of England — and another trackday booked at Cadwell park in September.

I have a set of Rennsports from a racing friend to put on it when these standard tyres are done - looking forward to that.

Suzuki Harris Magnum Two This is a bike that was built for Performance Bikes in 1985 and cost £13,000 at that time. It was a project bike for them and they used a Harris Magnum frame (handbuilt in the UK by the Harris brothers). It was the solution at that time to the high performance Japanese engines of the time versus the bendy frames from Japan back then.

Harris built frames predominantly for Suzuki engines to use in racing from Club events to Endurance at that time and they are now in Moto GP with the WCM/R1 derived bike.

It featured in the magazines of course and completed many road tests and track sessions before being rebuilt as a proper road bike and then going downhill for some years.

Having only 11,000 miles on the Harris when I swopped it with my friend who took my 1989 GSX-R750 instead. It had sat in a garage for many years and had lost it's race fairing etc.

It needed fully rebuilding so I took it on and set a deadline of ten weeks (to the TT races) to get it running, polished and repaired, resprayed and ready for the road. It was ready at 1.00 AM on the day we set off to the Island.

Spec: Harris Magnum 2 frame — handmade chrome/molybdenum perimeter.

Rear subframe: handmade aluminium undertray.

Seat unit: Suzuki RGV 250 rear unit and seat units, by me.

Front end: original 43mm Marzocchi forks replaced with R1 forks, wheels, brakes, carbon fibre mudguard and Intermediate race tyres. Hard Conversion due to having to get a new head set spindle machined to fit the two together.

Rear end: JMC handmade braced swinging arm including concentric adjusters with a Bandit 1200 wheel and intermediate race tyres.

Engine: Suzuki GSX1100ES bottom end and GSX1100 ET top end, bored out to 1200cc. High lift race cams, race pistons, raised compression, uprated oil pump and oil cooler, welded crank, smoothbore carbs, high flow gas taps from standard aluminium tank.

All now refinished in black lacquer and polished cam covers and clutch cover, set up by Hobbsport in the UK.

Transmission: Running a 630 chain and custom made 15mm offset front sprocket to allow for the increased tyre/ wheel width from the standard sizes.

Exhaust: Straight through Harris race pipe, best described as ear splitting. You can hear it from four miles away — confirmed by friends, and it is legal due to the age of the bike.

Lighting: Twin Cibies spotlights

Power: 115 bhp at rear wheel, 80 Nm (29 lb-ft, impressive for an old one).

1/4 mile times : Best so far 11.60/136 mph (hard due to short wheel base and big torque figure — you cannot keep the front down in the first two gears.

Handling: Very quick steering due to trail and wheelbase set up. Quicker than my GSX-R1000. Stable in bends but since it is so quick on steering, you have to hang onto it. Wheelies are a constant problem and care is needed even in top gear.

Example: I was following my friend who was doing 148 mph on his GSX-R1000; I hit a slight rise in the road and then I was significantly on one wheel — new underwear please.

All in all: A bike for short, intense runs out - easily keeps up with any modern Super Sports bike due to the strength of the fantastic GSX engine and predictable handling — and I am no GP riding God, believe me.

Police are only interested in looking at it because it is different and any slightly illegal things like race tyres are always overlooked.
