The 1972 Suzuki GT750, known as the Water Buffalo, is a landmark motorcycle that changed the landscape of two-stroke engineering. It was the first Japanese mass-produced water-cooled two-stroke. Its 738cc inline three-cylinder engine delivers strong and smooth performance, while the water-cooling system with an electric fan keeps all three cylinders running reliably.
This GT750 in Candy Jackal Blue combines classic styling with advanced engineering. Original side panels, radiator covers, and period-correct badges give it a distinctive look. The 5-speed transmission and three-carburetor setup provide a broad and lively powerband. Dual front disc brakes and a rear drum brake give solid stopping power. The stable frame and comfortable dual seat make it surprisingly easy to handle for a bike of this size.
Introduced to meet the demand for high-performance touring bikes, the GT750 offered a unique combination of two-stroke power, water-cooling refinement, and long-distance comfort. It competed with larger four-stroke bikes of the early 1970s, but its sound, character, and engineering earned it a loyal following.
This example has been exceptionally preserved. It is ready to ride, show, or keep as a piece of motorcycling history. The Water Buffalo is more than a bike. It is a snapshot of a bold era in Japanese motorcycle design and a must-have for collectors and enthusiasts.
