    Concept model with an ultra-advanced mechanism of "fulltime 2-wheel drive" developed with the accumulated ideas of Suzuki engineering staff. The technologies for creating an excellent drivability were also incorporated boldly in the power steering and swing seat. And high rigidity and weight reduction were realized by the adoption of honeycomb mono-cock body made of carbon fiber.

    1985

The most advanced technologies 4-cycle square 4-cylinder 500cc engine, frameless body, front-and-rear swingarm suspension, center hub hydraulic power steering, chainless hydraulic drive and pop-up screen cowling were incorporated.

    Brilliant. I love looking at old designs and concepts of what the vehicles of the future would look like. That suzuki still looks like some of the concepts produced today.
    My signature is cooler than yours.

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    Never really got the idea around those vertical bars in the first piccy. I have enough trouble with normal ones.
    Some things are worth dying for, living is one of them.

    lol nice one.

    Pretty awesome designs I must say, even more interesting that they are 20 odd years old
    To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded
