Check out the width of the front fender on the trumpet ,that's got to keep u dry but shaves a lot off your top speed!


I suppose they need to keep that magneto dry.  Wonder why they put the darn thing right down on the front of the engine....where the front tire throws all the crap.

The magneto was put there because it's a TRIUMPH of BRITISH engineering. After all old chap, who would motorcycle in the rain?

Desert Rat, I can't downsize the picture of my GN 250 to fit the 2048 KB restriction on here. You experts could judge whether there's a hint of BSA Bantam in the Suzuki Colleda

hey jcstokes ... if you're interested, here's a little history of the Japanese motorcycle market since it's "creation" ...

the very end of the article is NOT SAFE FOR WORK, contains images of nude girls on Suzuki motorcycles.

http://fleshandrelics.com/tag/vintage-japanese-motorcycles/page/3

looks like the Japanese just reversed engineered German and European imports for their local markets, as the imports were cost prohibitive for the population.

Real Classics did a story on the build of that bike over a couple issues a year or two ago. Turned out pretty nice!  Smiley

The Norton Manx has always been one of my favorites!
