The Suzuki GSX-R750 K5 Barry Sheene Edition was a limited edition machine built to commemorate the life and achievements of the legendary racer Barry Sheene MBE. With a very low production run, just 50 machines were produced. The GSX-R750 K5 offered a four-stroke, transverse four-cylinder, DOHC, 4 valves per cylinder 749cc engine, producing 145hp at 12800rpm.
Offered here is a genuine 'one registered owner from new' example, which is no. 37 of the 50 built by Suzuki. This 'replica' model has formed part of a private collection of motorcycles that has been cared for meticulously in ownership and only displays c. 596 miles. An attractive example, it is offered complete with a Suzuki service history, current V5C, handbooks, two keys, presentation plaque, a limited edition unworn 'Barry Sheene' jacket and a rear seat. This particular bike is an excellent example to keep and cherish whilst stirring the memory of the great rider.
