The 1972 Suzuki GT 550 was the big version of Suzuki’s GT range of touring and commuting two-stroke triples. Unlikely to get you in trouble and most certain to get you home, Suzuki’s GT were the thinking person’s two strokes. Bore and stroke were an almost square 61mm x 62mm, giving a capacity of 544 cc. Compression ratio was 6.8:1 and claimed hp was 50 at 6,500 rpm. The five-speed transmission was operated via a multi-disc six-spring clutch. | |||
