At Motorcycle Live 2015 we took an old GSX-R750F, stripped it, worked out what needed replacing, and rebuilt it to brand new specification using genuine parts. This is the result! And the GSX-R750F is on our Vintage Parts Programme with loads of parts still available, along with other machines including the RGV250, GT750, and more. www.suzuki-gb.co.uk/vintage-parts
