Suzuki rewrote the 750-class rulebook when it launched the high-performance GSX-R750 on an unsuspecting world back in 1985. 'GSX-R' soon became one of motorcycling's biggest brands as the range expanded to include models of 1100, 600, 400, and 250cc. Although relegated to niche status in the UK following changes to the 'learner laws', the '250' category remained vibrant in Japan as novices were not permitted to ride anything bigger. The result was a plethora of highly specified quarter-litre machines from Japan's 'Big Four'. Two-stroke twins and across-the-frame fours predominated, with many available in enhanced 'Sports Production' (SP) specification as seen here. Almost all of these little gems were Japan-only models, though over the years many have been privately imported into the UK.

This gorgeous Suzuki GSX-R250R SP was privately imported into France where it formed part of a private collection until 2017. That same year the machine was purchased from Lightning Quarter Garage of Rudgwick, West Sussex and registered in the UK. Fully serviced and fitted with new tyres in 2017, it was serviced again in 2018, receiving a new fuel tank, battery, spark plugs, and float bowl gaskets, while the carburettors were adjusted. The Suzuki was last ridden in July 2019 and has been started since then. Accompanying documentation consists of a dating certificate, sundry bills, MoT to July 2020, and a V5C.
