Let's not mince words and start with the beginnings, which occurred back in 1985, of this outstanding motorcycle, Loved by so many generations of motorcyclists for its inimitable 'race replica' spirit<\/strong> and for its innate balance between drivability and absolute performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first model of Suzuki GSX-R 750<\/strong> was introduced to the public in October 1984 at the Cologne Motor Show (Intermot) and went on sale in March 1985<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 1985 GSX-R 750 used. Technology solutions derived directly from the world of racing<\/strong> and in particular from the World Endurance Championship where Suzuki had great experience. For this reason it is considered the first mass-produced race replica motorcycle<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1986 saw the introduction of minor cosmetic changes, such as a different lower fairing, a swingarm longer than 25mm<\/strong> designed to make the bike less 'nervous' and of radial tires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other changes were the introduction of the red and black coloring<\/strong> (depicted in the previous photo) and the launch of the bike in the U.S. market as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A limited edition of only 500 was launched in the Japanese market<\/strong>, with the initials GSX-R 750 R. The color scheme was red and black, with white graphics and a 'Tsujimoto' nameplate in honor of the Japanese Superbike champion of the same name. This version was distinguished by the presence of a steering damper, dry clutch, and street tires. The engine was depowered to 77 hp.<\/strong> Because of Japanese regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
