Here's a trio built by a very good friend of mine back in England;

The Triumph is a commission, built for another friend.

The last bike I owned before I moved to the US:

My avatar is an '84 GS750/850 streetfighter I built, circa 1996. I got a centerspread in Back Street Heroes magazine with it.

And a GSXR750 hardtail chop I collaborated on building for a national giveaway for AWOL magazine in (I think) 1995. That's a younger, thinner me on the left.

Motorcycle press has been accused for ..being dependent on the brands and not Printing the truth.
Not getting invitations to press releases at comfy resorts all inclusive .. nice smiling young ladies in Swim suits
serving cool drinks with small umbrellas in them
Some would call it corruption
Not getting access to the newest bikes .. No one is going to buy the magazine

This is different not saying it is the truth but I have never seen it before Freedom of speech can save lives here

A sad but fair review overall.
Suzuki were a force in GP back in the day; just remember Kevin Schwantz on the Pepsi bikes!
They came good again with the later GSXR 1000 / 750 models; and those bike are still great to ride today.
 
I have no info on this bike, nor can I find any other photos, but it sure looks cool! 😄

Wow Bob, at first glance looks like a classic Honda…..but that motor!
:p:heart::heart::heart:

Looks like a water cooled CBR250RR in an old CB 72 (305?) frame.... Looks cool.
