Stubborn or persistent.

I choose the latter. Thanks for keeping at it.

The 1970's Suzuki RE5 !

Oh my lord, I had managed to just get over the nightmares about these..............NURSE, ITS ALL HAPPENING AGAIN !!!!!!!!!!

A very interesting concept, but a nightmare of a bike with a 500cc Rotary type engine.
It also had a "Cylinder" type instrument panel which opened up to expose the clocks when you turned the ignition on.......or it did when it was dry and not raining in the UK anyway.

Its the result of what happens when you mix LSD and giving too much free time to 1970's Suzuki Bike Designers in Japan !!!!

Just due to its rare nature, age and different engine they are now beginning to shoot up in value.

Work on the engine at your peril..............

I worked on quite a few when I worked at Suzuki. What I liked most was that not even the foreman would come near me when I was working on one and I could take as long as I wanted.
They were very complicated but once I understood what was what I got quite good with them
