The plus
The Suzuki GSX 1100 ES is a motorbike that embodies the spirit of the 80s. Its robust engine, combined with its unique design, makes it an exceptional choice for motorbike enthusiasts. It won't be mistaken for a leisurely cruiser - it's a true sports bike, full of character. It won Cycle World's Superbike of the Year award for three consecutive years, from 1981 to 1983.
This particular bike, with its striking blue and white metallic paintwork, is a fine example of the GSX 1100 ES. But it's not just a question of looks - this bike with matching numbers has it all, with a low mileage on the clock that seems to be borne out by its condition.
