Hi Mark,
This is my recently purchased 1979 Suzuki GS750 EN
(UK Spec)
Bought new in June 1979 by Paul Rhynehart, this bike has
only had 3 owners to date. Paul kept it until July of
2005 when it appeared on UK Ebay and was bought by Neal
Rothwell . Neal only kept this almost immaculate
bike until October 2005 when it once again hit Ebay.
Having missed the first auction in July 2005, I then
missed it in October 2005 because someone used the
"buy it now" option - only for
it to re-appear within 3 hours later because the buyer
could not pay for it!
I hit the "buy it now" button within 3 minutes
of it being re-listed!
Finally, on the third time of trying, I bought the bike.
I collected my new GS750 the following week - choosing to
ride it the 128 miles home in temperatures of 10 degrees
centigrade, mist and light
rain - oh, and in the dark! The
bike never missed a beat, using the motorway (highway) all
the way home at a steady 80 to 95 mph, with a final nip up
to 110 over the last two or three miles
The bike now lives in my centrally-heated, carpeted
garage, along with my Honda SP-1 (RC51) and Yamaha RD350
LC.
