  • In this video, we go over the history of Suzuki Motorcycle company since its foundation in 1909. We cover a wide variety of motorcycles, including world famous GSX-R family, RM-Z series as well as the racing evolution of Suzuki company.
    We start off by talking about the origins of Suzuki company. It started as a loom works company in Hamamatsu, Japan. It wasn't up until 1952 when Suzuki released its first proper motorcycle. "Power Free" model saw the world. It was the first motorcycle of the company. Then the company moved on and produced the Colleda series motorcycles, which became the turning point for the company as it concentrated its efforts on producing motorcycles. The series included Colleda COX, Colleda ST and Colleda Sel Twin. It also carried on into 60s, being reflected as motorcycle grand prix team name. Later it was renaimed to Suzuki factory team.
    Hope you enjoy!

    • @letstalktransport2590

      Thank you for your comment. The primary reason I didn't mention those bikes was due to the time limit that I stick to. If I included every bike that viewers had suggested in the comments, the video would have gone well beyond 1-hour mark. I hope you understand.

      Moto, thanks for mentioning that. The video was too compacted for my best comprehension and enjoyment but the content worthwhile. I was a mechanic and service manager for a Suzuki/Kawasaki shop just north of NYC and rode a TS250 to work most every day as well as campaigning one in the Berkshire Intl. Trials in 1971, getting s silver medal. The workmanship of Suzuki was always top notch, remarkable in their progress.

    Ahem. A really juicy part to the Suzuki story was when they nearly went bankrupt in the early 1960's and resorted to:"1965 Suzuki clone.Degner defected from East Germany while leading the 1961 FIM 125cc World Road Racing Championship with only one race to go. Degner (with his wife and children) escaped from East Germany in the trunk of a car. Degner immediately signed a contract with Suzuki. According to sources, Degner arrived at the Suzuki factory in Hamamatsu, Japan, under the pseudonym of “Eugene Muller” taking with him some MZ parts (cylinder, piston, crankshaft and rotary-valve) plus some blueprints. Degner reportedly shared most of Kaaden’s ideas with Suzuki. This paved the way for the Japanese domination of small displacement motorcycle racing in the following decades. The most notable Kaaden-clone was the 1963 Suzuki RT63 road racer." (Note: this Kaaden was none other than the same key engineer en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Kaaden involved in the development of:en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henschel_Hs_293 The Henschel Hs 293 was a World War II German anti-ship guided missile)
    Ernst Degner (2) on the Suzuki RT63.Also see: the Mat Oxley book: motomatters.com/review/2009/06/22/book_review_stealing_speed_by_mat_oxley.html
