Title: What is SX7?
Post by: BeerGarage on August 13, 2009, 05:53:21 PM
Anyone know about this model?

I saw an ad for a 1987 Suzuki SX7.

Google and suzukicycles.org were no help. 


Thanks.

Looks like a bunch of bodywork from 90's GSXRs, plus some stickers on a tiny gas tank.  No idea what this actually is...

Sorta obvious...

haha, yeah, I love old streetfightered gsxrs, but most older than the 89-98ish slingshot frames don't do it for me, mostly because the tank looks like it's about to slide off the back of the bike. I also love the late 90's gsxr 600 and 750s but their parts don't make for good streetfighters either, the tank is too round, and the tail, well, you can see for that for yourself. Either way, spend $100 on a newer GSXR or R1 tail and some black spray paint, and you'd be in business with a pretty serious bike.
