Using the Colleda marque name, Suzuki launched its first 250cc two-stroke twin in 1956, and the type would remain a fixture of the range for the next 40 years. The replacement T10 appeared in 1963 sporting, among numerous improvements, Suzuki's new 'CCI' pumped lubrication system. The next stage of development was the now classic T20 Super Six, which was marketed in the USA as the X6 Hustler. Introduced in 1965, the T20 was an entirely new design although still a 250cc parallel-twin two-stroke. The frame was a now tubular and of the duplex loop type, while the gearbox offered the rider the luxury of six speeds for the first time on a road-going motorcycle. With its precise handling, good brakes, powerful (29bhp) motor and 90mph-plus top speed, the Super Six received rave reviews in the motorcycling press and soon established a giant-killing reputation in production machine racing. Inevitably, many were converted for racing, and original unmodified examples are rare. Today the Super Six/Hustler is one of the most collectible of 1960s Japanese classics.

This Super Six currently displays a total of only 4,715 miles on the odometer and would respond well to detailing, the engine turns over. Offered unregistered and without documents.
