GT380 Cafe Racer purchased from Suzuki Ann Arbor around 1978
I'm going to take a long shot and see if anyone here recalls or might know the whereabouts of a '72 GT380 homebuilt cafe racer which was sold out of Suzuki Ann Arbor sometime in the '77 - '79 time frame. Distinctive features were GT750 front end with thin turned dual disks, layed-down shocks, blacked out engine with 3 seperate cylinder heads and an CCI oil tank in the tail section.

Blimey, that is a real long-shot! I hope you find it, but chances are slim. Sounds like it was a lovely bike.

Good luck with that.
If you stroke it more than twice; you're playing with it.

Thanks guys. After all the work selling that particular bike was definitely the biggest motorcycle related mistake I ever made. I know this is super long shot but what the hell.
