"Suzuki RG500 XR14" (1975)
The 1975 Suzuki RG500 XR14, in its iconic blue and white "King
Helmets" livery, is a motorcycle forever associated with the legendary
British racer Barry Sheene. This bike was a key player in Suzuki's
domination of the Grand Prix racing scene during the 1970s. The RG500
was powered by a 500cc square-four, two-stroke engine, a design that
allowed for incredible power and acceleration, delivering over 100
horsepower at its peak. The bike's lightweight and nimble chassis made
it a formidable competitor on the track, and under Sheene's skillful
hands, it became a race-winning machine. The XR14's distinctive blue and
white colour scheme, adorned with the "King Helmets" sponsorship, became
an enduring image of Sheene's success, including his victory at the 1976
and 1977 500cc World Championships. The 1975 Suzuki RG500 XR14 remains
one of the most iconic racing motorcycles in history, celebrated for its
technical brilliance, its role in Suzuki's racing legacy, and its
connection to one of the sport's most charismatic champions.
