philwright Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Just been trying to trace my bikes engine its a 1052 1100j slabby number U704-107427 , looking at the Suzuki gsxr records as far as i can tell it was supposed to be a model for France/ W.Germany with a question mark on whether it was restricted. I have the original sales receipt from 1988 - sold by Crooks in barrow in furnace with the matching engine number and so i know the motor hasnt been swapped, did some of these bikes end up in Uk and would it have been restricted at the time? - it aint now BTW ,124bhp dyno readout.
