The body styling is from genius of Mr. Hans A. Muth of western Germany, whom spent much time ensuring motorist comfort in their design, and which proved away in lots of wind tunnel tests. The complete styling ended up being derived from research on the most readily useful drivers place, plus the rearward placed backsteps and unique tank styling are not done only for the pleasing jet age appearance.

Big capability gas tank and tiny fairing were blended together for the best airflow across the rider together with bike. Even though the bike is many noticeable for the styling, every part inside is quality. Engine is an air-cooled, parallel 4 of 1075cc, using 16 valves. With unique Suzuki TSCC (Twin Swirl Combustion Chamber) within the engine, it creates 111 hp.
