Suzuki 500/5 Cobra

Post by Roger Ackery »

Hi, a friend has entered his Suzuki Cobra In a Rally in March down in Canberra ACT Australia.
I think it should bring home a Trophy or 2 ;)
Lovely Motorcycle 8-)

Very tidy.
Apparently, when new, the only thing they couldn't pass was a petrol station.
But who cared then or now? :lol:

Ooo err matron, I think I've just 'wet' my knickers!
The older ones were the best ones, SUZUKI really cocked things up with the GT 500 A & B the only saving grace was a bigger capacity fuel tank.
Lovely bike cobber!
