"Suzuki GT750" (1972)
The 1972 Suzuki GT750, affectionately known as the
"Water Buffalo" or "Kettle," is a landmark motorcycle that brought
liquid-cooling to the forefront of two-stroke engine technology. Powered
by a 739cc two-stroke, three-cylinder engine, the GT750 was the first
mass-produced motorcycle to feature liquid cooling, a pioneering move
that set it apart from its air-cooled contemporaries. The engine
delivered around 67bhp, providing a smooth and torquey powerband
that was ideal for both relaxed cruising and spirited riding. The
GT750's distinctive design included a large radiator positioned between
the front forks, a dual exhaust system, and a comfortable, upright
riding position, making it a capable long-distance tourer. The bike's
unique character was further enhanced by its distinctive exhaust note, a
blend of the two-stroke crackle with the mellow hum of the water-cooled
engine. The 1972 Suzuki GT750 remains a beloved classic, celebrated for
its innovation, distinctive styling, and the smooth, reliable
performance that made it a popular choice among riders of the 1970s.
