1975 Suzuki GT-550 - Japanese two-wheeled Chevrolet

The Suzuki 550 caters to a fairly vertical piece of the market, riders who want a machine capable of medium to long distance touring, around town commuting, and relatively mild performance coupled with reliability. There is nothing frivolous or flashy about the workings of the 550 Suzuki. It is a straightforward design, intended to get a rider from A to B with a minimum of hassle, vibration and gear changing. It's the motorcycling equivalent of a Ford or a Chevolet, if you will, and it serves its purpose exactly as it was intended to.
