MikaS Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 What a bunch of muppets , JD would say. Gen3 was approved by 61 year old Toshihiro Suzuki who ran it to 112mph , "was immediately impressed" They tried big blocks, 6 cylinder, turbo`s , but decided to go with the old design, oh man... Styling designer Takumi Takano looks like he had a electric shock while smoking weed. from 14:25 they talk to each other trying to convince they made the right choice, and it does not look convincing, "i feel we really raised the bar in big way" "when i look at the final product, i am once again convinced that we made the right decision" , looking around , avoiding eye contact, kicking rocks...

I would suggest also upgrade the cams, as i am sure you would appreciate the upper range. thanks Mika, do you have a spare head floating around in your parts store ?

Suzuki are being politically correct - all cars and bikes are limited to 112 mph in Japan its the world we live no more 'willy waiving' speed is now a dirty word in Automotive marketing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meado Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 My takeaway from that video is the Japanese designers took the "if it ain't broke don't fix it approach".... again. ..."the gen 1 was such a big hit....." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
