Info: small but what a bike took me to work and back for 2 years and never once let me down on a 40 mile round trip in all the good old crapy british weather , would still use her but work even further away and had to go bigger just for speed , but after riding through all seasons every day of the year not one blemish , built to last
2000 Suzuki GSX 750F

Photos: 4
Info: another good solid comfy bike which is a lot better than the so called bike experts say , once youve lived with this bike for a while you realise how smooth , comfortable and easy to ride this bike is might look a little quirky but at least it will be different to the million race reps
