SUZUKI GT550 - 'RAM AIR TRIPLE' - A2 SIZE POSTER NEW
Description
A QUALITY PRINT A2 size of a SUZUKI GT550 - RAM AIR TRIPLE model.
Suzuki introduced a trio of three-cylinder two-strokes in 1972: the air-cooled triples GT380 and GT550 and the new flagship, the liquid-cooled GT750. Both of the air-cooled models featured Suzuki new patented Ram Air cooling system that forced cool air under a aluminium shield mounted on the top of the cylinder heads and improve cooling. The system really worked and the GT models didn't suffer from the problems that usually are attached to air-cooled two-strokes: overheating engines and loosing power as a result of it. According to the test rides from those days the GT380 and GT550 delivered the same amount of power even after hard use.
The GT380 had 6 gears but the GT550 with its wider power range worked just fine with its 5-speed gearbox. The GT550 was called Indy in the USA. The model was sold until the introduction of four-stroke GS550 in 1977. .
