T 500 Vallelunga / 500 Sport TT 1972
A Suzuki Italy special model. They also did a limited edition called the Vallelunga based on the GT750, ten to full TR750 works spec. and a hundred less potent look-alikes. Great tank, GT750 drum brake, rear sets etc.
 Well, once again, I can't seem to produce the photo and you all will just have to click on the link. Sorry.

I thought all Suzi Titan 500's looked like that?
I think the thing I most like about motorcycling is the speed at which my brain must process information at to avoid the numb skulls who are eating pies, playing the ukulele, applying make-up etc in the comfort of their airconditioned armchairs as they make random attempts to kill me!!!!!!!

Bill, what's the story with this one? A factory racer maybe? Is it based off the Water Buffalo, or Kettle... or is it Water Bottle? Colostomy Bag? I can't keep up with all these nick names. ::) ;D

No matter, looks racy and rare!

     No real solid info on this one yet, seems like a Factory Custom model and possibly named for a race in Vallelunga Italy. Here is some more stiff on the GT750 though.

Who says radiators mess up the looks of a bike? These things are sharp! The air cooled too.

Nice jumpsuit lady. Geez... :D
