Actually the Suzy 750 triple was known for its torque, not so much a pipey power band. Unlike the Kawasaki 750 triples.

This picture is from 1972... IIRC. My buddys Suzy was brand new and we went to Sleeping Bear Dunes on Memorial Day. Yep, it was a smooth running quiet ride..... until he added expansion chambers and ported it. I only rode it once afterwards, briefly, but it was a memorable experience. He asked me not to go to redline as the engine was still fresh, so I went through a few gears stopping well short of redline. The bike was transformed into a screamin' torque monster.

Cool bike Mick!!!! (diggin' the easy rider helmet also!!). I was lookin' back at Gordon's (Ilbikes) thread about his water buffalo restore but I saw your name in there so you are aware of how his turned out.

First ride of the year here in the frozen north! Went out around lake Minnetonka and back. Lake is still solid ice. Actually saw some people out on the damn ice on skis with a big sail. The wind was pulling them across the ice. I have no idea what that sport is called.

1st pic, a very small library- Hamel, MN
2nd pic, neat barn with some outdoor art and a nice quote on the side- Plymouth MN

Yes, I was cold.

Ice sailing. Something they don't get to do in the sand states.

It's more about function than form. You can fit a lot of camping gear on that sissy bar. Backpack, sleeping bag, tent, and good to go.
