In my mind all suzuki's are good .... something  to do with their colour  ;D
It amazes me how long it took production bikes to catch up with these hybrids.

Go Roger, Go Joel. The two greatest riders and both raced for CZ and Suzuki. It would be a great thrill to meet and spend an evening listening to these two greats. I would pay big money for that privelage.

Joel was at CD 5  "Raymond Terrace"  Bro.  Was great  to listen to some of his yarns of how he travelled between race meets back in the days.
