Omg!
Thank you mate, that is just what the doctor ordered!
Suzuki gt 750, mint by the looks of it, what a beauty!
Do you know the bike and owner?

No don't mate. All i know it belongs to a mate of the mot tester and he spent 5wks cleaning it prior to putting in for test. It passed.

A10 Flash, very nice too.
the brakes are a puzzle?
would the JC Patents be JC Higgins, the pushbike hub manufacturer?
Looks like an intermediate Dunlop Road master tyre, kinda trail bike in appearance, but the forks, brackets etc don't look original either.
Boriani rim, grafted into a weird hub, and an odd pair of forks?
anymore clues?

Weird brakes! Are there four shoes in there - or two shoes with a cam at each end to move both ends at once???

Short term memory loss Shrew. Yes Alfasix 4 leading shoes in there, still available while stocks last.

I had a 131 mirafiori - however it was brown with skinny 13 inch rims hence didn't quite look like the one above...

Very nice JB.
weighed a ton though, but silky smooth and sounded very nice too.
a mate of mine here in Nottingham still has a heavily modified one, he's had it years, and being a former partner at Sprint Engineering (Sprint Steering Dampers fame) it is littered with bespoke parts, machinings and components in an effort to lighten and stiffen the beast up i imagine!

Gorgeous!
I so miss mine, but i can look back on 20 of those 30 years with the most fantastic admiration for every model made, and owned pretty much! Lol!
A gsxr never fails to deliver what it was built for, incredible history too, and as you already know, i will recommend ghem to anyone that will listen!

Very nice Tony.
Love the continued use of the HRD branding too.
We could both do some miles with that Tony. But guess who's going in the chair?

He's turned down 70K for that combo-she's called the "Fast Lady" if you want to look her up. On my bucket list to have a go in the chair of a pucker outfit.
