Under the unique name “Oil-cooled reactivation project”Yoshimura has set to work to offer owners of oil-cooled Suzuki GSX-R750 and GSX-R1100 a new catalog of components with which to maintain them as they deserve.
It goes without saying at this point that sports motorcycles from the 80s and 90s have become, in most cases, true collector’s items. The boom in the so-called Old School has grown steadily in recent years, and among these cult frames are of course the iconic “Hi-Sport” from Hamamatsu.
Yoshimura “Oil-Cooled Revival Project”: Preserving Suzuki History
Now, thanks to the Autoby team, we have been aware of this initiative “Oil-cooled reactivation project”, presented by Yoshimura at the last Tokyo Motorcycle Show. They took there a first-generation GSX-R750, completely restored and inspired by the motorcycle that Satoshi Tsujimoto competed with in Daytona.
Tsujimoto was the second pilot to compete in the legendary American test after the participation of Shohei Kato in 1978. That GSX-R750 with the number 604 was faithfully portrayed in this preparation, with which this “Energy-cooled reactivation project” is also announced. oil”.
As we can see in the images, they have not only limited themselves to restoring it with new elements. It also equips some modifications focused on improving final performance. Among them an exhaust system signed by Yoshimura, or Brembo components presiding over braking.
In this way, the “Oil-Cooled Reactivation Project” will not only be responsible for providing GSX-R750 and GSX-R1100 owners with the original accessories with which to keep them in the best possible condition. It will also supply others, from external brands, with which their technical specifications can be improved.
