Any shots of Keith Turpin's bike? Wasn't he on Factory Suzuki in 1987?

Here is a good picture of it anyway though:
I'm surprised nobody commented on the forkbrace on MC's bike

I remember MC saying his bike was so slow he called it an RM 175.Tongue

I do love your work Blaze. I've always been a Suzuki guy so this thread was especially sweet. Thanks.

Edit: I raced an '85 RM 250 and to me that was one of the best looking zooks on the list. However, seeing one now really makes it look dated.

Thanks for the pics of the "HURRICANE" bob Hannah. Always been a big fan. Met him once, just a cool straight up dude. Thanks again.

Is it just me or have Suzuki’s had funky rear fenders since the dawn of time? Even now in 2019.

Some great bikes in here. Windham’s MXDN bike is an all timer
