The '''Suzuki SP370''' is a [[motorcycle]] produced by [[Suzuki]] from 1978 to 1979. The '''Suzuki SP370''' was the first [[Suzuki]] [[motorcycle]] with a single cylinder four-stroke engine, if you don't count the short-lived Colleda CO and COX models from the fifties. Unfortunately it had a bit too weak engine and it was a bit too expensive to become a great success. [[Yamaha]], for example, could offer a 500cc trail bike for the same money as you had to pay for the SP370. It was made in the US from 1978-1979. Suzuki produced an enduro oriented variant in the [[Suzuki DR370]] | |||
