Suzuki’s UK division today announced a special edition of the SFV650 Gladius mid-weight naked bike a paint scheme worthy of a classic Grand Prix bike from the 70s.
The paint scheme is the only thing that changes of the bike, but if you’re into classic motorsports legents, this might be for you. The scheme is taken from the RG500 Grand Prix race bike, the Texaco XR-34 style - red with white and yellow striping.

"For the very first time we included our own Facebook community in the decision to bring this special edition to market. With its flowing lines the SFV lends itself perfectly to a retro scheme, and proved to be a popular choice. The recommended retail price is just £300 more than the standard model at £6,399, including a special belly-pan too, but will only be available to order for a limited time via authorised dealers. So, If you're keen we suggest you act fast."

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
