Suzuki's engined SW-1 is a fully enclosed vintage retro styled machine finished in cream, amazing styling, sadly only made for the Japanese home market in 1992 thus extremely rare. Belt drive, twin supertrapp adjustable silencers, dual leather looking seats, rear pop open side storage. Looking from the rear of the bike gives you a very 60's Vespa feeling.
