I bet there's a "Crazy Cooter" type out there who might agree with you.

I can see them now sandblasting that thing, trying to "save" it for posterity.

LOL!!

I would bet a dollar it is a 74 Suzuki water buffalo (GT750)
I believe all 3 bikes in the pic that are recognizable are the same.

I used to own a GS750. The bike would fly!! 4 cyl. 4 carbs.

The GT became the GS which became the GSX which became he GSX-R.
That is the full evolution of the modern super sport bike.

Close, it's a Wankel Rotary engine powered Suzuki, like the one in front of it.

Not much interests me other than old Brit bikes, Harleys and Indians.
