Road & Track June 1984 |
Just some old junk....
with apologies to Ogden Nash...
I never saw these oddball fat tire Suzukis back when they were new, but they must have sold enough of them because they keep turning up, and Suzuki has reintroduced the bike as a VanVan. I still don't get them.
The new marque wasn't quite ready to show at the Olympia show in late November 1920, but by Christmas it was in the weekly motorcycle magazines. Powered by a 980 OHV JAP V twin, it was presented as a fast sporty solo mount and George Brough was eager to promote his "specially ordered" components in his "assembled" motorcycle.
