I first started riding motorbikes in 1974, 13 years old. Road trail, trials and motocross bikes, Honda MT250, Suzuki TS185, Honda Elsinore CR125, Yamaha RT360 and finally a Yamaha TY250 Trials bike. Favourite was the Yamaha TY250 as I loved trials riding the absolute most. When I bought my first road bike at 19 I bought a Suzuki GT 250 X7 2-stroke, followed by a Honda CBX550F and finished off with a Honda CBX750F before I retired from riding motorbikes when I got married and had kids.
The GT250. You say the A model. This looks like a very nice late M version (the ram air cover and side panel flashes are the giveaways). Nice collection !!!!! I finally got a GT750L late last year. Only wanted one for 46 years after three GT250's ( 1 x M, 2 x C) 😮
Brings back so many memory's of my old Gt250 's i had a few! and with home made expansions, had a Gt185 also, pointless with electric start, ! but from memory i had a 380 for a month or so, and remember electric start on that ? or am i confused with the 550 , that i never had, all my Suzuki's were in the same blue, and weirdly my Honda Gold wing Gl1000 was the same ish colour
Great collection,, especially with the expansion pipes,, brilliant,, Suzuki being my choice to,, awesome watching and listening to 😊😊😊☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️👍 from northern Ireland
@robertmenghini.lowbournecl8531 I had a blue GT 185 in 1977 great and reliable. at the moment I have a Triumph speed triple r 1050 /2018 but I do miss having the 2 Stroke.
Absolutely gorgeous, love the smell of the two stroke engines with the autolube system , totally reminds me of my teenage years, I had a 750gt Suzuki in 1976, boy could it shift.
beautiful bikes! my fav being the 380. i do not like the exhaust system on the 380 though. the stock exhaust is a much more awesome sound of a two stroke triple. cheers
The 250 is a gt250l not an a ..and the rev counter is from the later model ..the high beam light is blue ...on the k and l models it was red for high beam ...but still nice bike

Thanks for your memories

Thanks for watching my video and I’m glad it bought back memories. Rob

Enjoy the Kettle, I have have two of Hammies, they’re in my channel. I think you’re right with the GT250 model. Thanks for watching my video. Rob
I agree that the 250 is a m model although the tank colour scheme is for the L model
3 great bikes. I’ve had a few GT250s, a T500, GT500 and a GT750. All terrific bikes, I love the noise of the Higgspeed exhausts. 👍
Thanks

Stunning 1970 Suzuki GT models
Thanks for watching my video
I had a silver 380 with a 3 into 1 Piper pipe on it, oh how loud was it sounded like an RG500 racer. Your video brought back so many good memories

Fantastic machines, the GT380 is a thing of beauty!
Thanks buddy

Stupendous bikes Robert.

Thanks for sharing.
Glad you liked the video
Sempre appassionato di queste bellezze motociclistiche.
Thanks buddy for watching my video, glad it bought back memories
Lovely trio of Suzukis there Rob, the 380 does sound fab.
Thanks Lee, it’s so loud!
Absolutely gorgeous, love the smell of the two stroke engines with the autolube system , totally reminds me of my teenage years, I had a 750gt Suzuki in 1976, boy could it shift.
They are lovely bikes, thanks for your kind comments 😊
Beautiful bikes so much smarter than most of the modern ones.
I agree 👍
Great bikes, shame about the Higgspeeds though, they let the side down a bit. Certainly not the best looking spannies available :(
Fair enough!
beautiful bikes! my fav being the 380. i do not like the exhaust system on the 380 though. the stock exhaust is a much more awesome sound of a two stroke triple. cheers
Stunning
Thanks Mark
I had a gt 250a and a 380 nice bikes I still a boyer branden electric ignition for the 380 brand new
All nice bike's but look wrong with the silver/black number plates that were not fitted to any new vehicle's after 1973 🤔
I know what you mean
Excellent
Thank you so much 😀
The sound of music. 😊
Thanks
😂❤absolute 2stroke heaven awesome
Thanks for watching my video
fantastic bikes never had the 380. had a RD250 instead
Thanks buddy for watching my video, glad it bought back memories

Best colour(s)!
Yes I agree
that 380 !!!!!!!
I know, it's awesome 👌
So I do have a question:
Where do you find all the parts?
I am in Canada and looking at restoring a 1973 GT250.
Ebay is usually what i use
@@robertmenghini.Lambomad thank you.
your missing the 185
Sorry but the gt 250A did not have the ram air contraption on the cylinder head
Hi, it did have the Ram Air system. I have GT 250A 1974 & a GT 125A 1974 both with RA heads 👍
@MartWilkes yes you’re right!
One question: did you install bigger jets due to the Higgspeed exhaust in the 380?
It was already done when I bought the bike so I don’t know?
@@robertmenghini.Lambomad ok - thank you
I miss the days of 2T.🥱
Thanks buddy for watching my video, glad it bought back memories
