1974 Suzuki GT750 ‘Kettle’
We are delighted to offer this superb 1974 Suzuki GT750, one of the most distinctive and technically significant Japanese motorcycles of its generation, and a machine that has long since earned its place among the great classics of the Seventies.
Affectionately known in the UK as the ‘Kettle’, the GT750 was remarkable upon its introduction, combining Suzuki’s formidable two-stroke engineering expertise with the refinement of liquid cooling. Its 738cc three-cylinder engine delivered effortless performance and exceptional smoothness, while the motorcycle’s imposing appearance, generous equipment and unmistakable styling made it a highly desirable flagship model.
This particular 1974 Metallic Blue example has been restored to a most impressive standard and presents beautifully throughout. Considerable care has clearly been taken to preserve the character and integrity of this important model, with close attention paid to its period appearance, finishes and detailing. The result is a handsome and highly evocative machine that would sit with distinction in any serious collection.
The GT750 offers a wonderfully different experience from its contemporary four-stroke rivals. Its turbine-like triple-cylinder engine, distinctive exhaust note and relaxed long-legged performance give the motorcycle a character entirely of its own, while its rarity and historical importance continue to strengthen its appeal among knowledgeable enthusiasts.
Good examples are increasingly difficult to source, and properly restored machines are particularly prized. This splendid 1974 Suzuki GT750 represents an excellent opportunity to acquire one of the defining Japanese motorcycles of the decade.
A beautifully presented example of Suzuki’s celebrated ‘Kettle’ – charismatic, technically fascinating and unquestionably collectible.
