The Suzuki GSX-R750R RK has to be among the top 10 for collectors who folow the homologation era superbikes. 500 RK’s were produced with the first 50 going to Canada. Japan kept the most with 200. And the UK received their batch of 50 from the 200 that went to Europe as a whole. Long story short, this is a rare motorcycle no matter where it’s listed.

From the brochure:
Only 30 came to canada amazing bikes !!!
If I ever made it big, this bike would be a part of my dream collections displayed next to Ducati 851, Yamaha OW-01, Honda RC30, and Kawasaki ZX-7R. I’m so basic.
Nice Bike.
I wanted one. In 1989 I bought an 1100 after my dealer pointed out the spec sheet on the 750.
Things that needed changing IF, you wanted to ride one everyday:
The front tire is such an odd size 130/60. Better would be a 120/65
The gear ratios are quite short. Doubtful anyone would be competitive saddled with what appears to be 3 third gears.
The solution is to swap the gearbox for a Standard 750 or even the 5 speed from the 1100.
While the bodywork is the star attraction for this bike, it does force a committed riding position. With the clipons under the triple clamps the reach even for a tall person was at a limit. For my 1100 I was able to source a set of Katana clipons with a built in riser. When mounted under the clipons the bar was dead level with the top triple clamp. Perfect for my 6’4″ reach. Something not possible without swapping the top triple on the 750RR as it has forward pinch bolts. In parking lots it was possible to get your clutch fingers pinched between the lower fairing and the lever if you were slipping the clutch while maneuvering.
Still, a very gorgeous looking bike and will stop me anytime I see one, or even a photo of one.
The value of something is measured by the Want of it.
Always wanted one.
