The bike was designed to be a bullet proofed "sports tourer" - in the thinking of the last 1970s - and [[Suzuki|Suzuki]] pooled the best of all the features, taking the engine from the [[Suzuki GS750|Suzuki GS750]], boring it to 850 providing more torque, the shaft drive from the 1100 and various other workings. The result was a solid, smooth and effortless tourer. It could run to 60mph in 4.2 seconds, but most riders snick it into high gear and let the torque cruise you up the speedo. | The bike was designed to be a bullet proofed "sports tourer" - in the thinking of the last 1970s - and [[Suzuki|Suzuki]] pooled the best of all the features, taking the engine from the [[Suzuki GS750|Suzuki GS750]], boring it to 850 providing more torque, the shaft drive from the 1100 and various other workings.
