How to restore Suzuki 2-stroke Triples

GT380, GT550 & GT750 1971 to 1978

- By Ricky Burns

172 pages soft cover ISBN: 978-1-845848-20-0 RRP: $89.99 Published by Veloce Available from Autobook World (02) 9231 6713 This subtitle of this book says it covers the three cylinder Suzuki models; GT380, GT550 and the GT750. Like all books in this Enthusiast’s Restoratio­n Manual series, it begins with a basic guide on how to go about an appraisal of the intended restoratio­n motorcycle, and a guide to the process, which is naturally common to virtually all motorcycle­s. Then begins a step-by-step strip down and rebuild project using a GT750L as the guinea pig. This covers absolutely every component as well as processes like painting, plating and wiring, ending up with a sparkling as-new machine. However despite the sub title, I failed to find anything about the two smaller models, which are quite different to the 750.
