Suzuki joined the exclusive superbike club in 1971 with the launch of the GT750. A three-cylinder water-cooled two-stroke, the GT750 was joined a year later by a pair of smaller air-cooled triples: the GT380 and GT550. Using the 54x54mm bore/stroke dimensions of the existing T250 twin, the GT380 displaced 371cc and produced 38bhp. The gearbox was a six-speeder, complemented by Suzuki's useful digital gear indicator in the instrument binnacle. Performance was brisk - 100mph being achievable. Smooth and comfortable, the GT380 handled surprisingly well once the original-equipment Japanese tyres had been replaced by superior European rubber, proving quicker than the more powerful, but heavier and harder-to-handle, GT550 over cross-country going.
Offered from a private collection in Belgium, this GT380 currently displays a total of 26,300 kilometres (approximately 16,300 miles) on the odometer and is described by the private vendor as highly original. Offered with the original service booklet.
