An unrestored SP370 Suzuki running well, really efficient on or off road.

Exactly, you nailed it. And doing it well too. The old four strokes can’t be beat for reliability. I love the older XR’s and XL’s, I wish I could find an XR350R

When I was a teenager in the 1980's, my friend thought it would be amusing to see me kick start his SP 500, it kicked back! Respect to you for competing in the Paris- Dakar Rally!! 👌👍 Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

Really great video! Love that scenery and the bike. I used to have a 1982 SP500 and I rode it in the mountains just like you did in this video. It was a great bike, very nice to ride and plenty of power for the mountains.

Excellent et excitant. Bien que toutes vos vidéos soient extraordinaires, c'est à mon goût la vidéo la plus spectaculaire, en plus de présenter un vélo très spécial. Il serait très intéressant de voir les AT1 à Montvernier, une belle route qui teste également les machines. Le ronflement du décompresseur de la AT1 dans les descentes devrait être délicieux. Bien sûr, lorsque la situation actuelle est passée Merci Meekoo.

Nice video again and a quite interesting bike. Thought about to buy one last year but couldn't find one in acceptable condition to refurbish, so I've bought and refurbished a Yamaha XT 250, which is a wonderful bike but misses the plus of power the SP 370 has. Just thought on this missed power as I thought you driving up the alps, must be fun :)

Had one new in '78, loads of power, shaky handling. Everybody that rode it crashed it. Had some white knuckle moments trying to keep up with my brothers GS-750 on full knobbies.

Mercy beaucup pour le video! Nice video & very nice bike. An advice regarding the "free wheeling" for a longer distance: I don't know how the gear bearings of this Suzuki are lubricated. The gear bearings of my little Honda XL250K3 are lubricated by the oil pump from the engine. This means, when the engine is not running, the gear bearings are no longer supplied with oil. This is not a problem for a short period, but might become a problem when doing so for a longer distance. ... well, just my two cents ;-) Anyway, the bike is really great. Salut Mark

Bonjour. The gear box is lubricated under pressure from the oil pump, but there is not too much risk with roller or needle bearings. But many years ago, I seized the primary gear box axle on a Honda SL 125 ! At left, it is running on a plain bearing.

@Milo_Minderbinder 5 жыл бұрын
Yes, you are absolutely right. Roller bearings don't have that risk. It's only if you have sleeve or bushing bearings. So, you are very aware about this issue. How could I had doubts ... :-)

@micoumeekoo 3 жыл бұрын
Hello. The 370 SP is more easy to handle than the TS400, and I prefer the wide torque band of the four stroke than brutal power of the 400. And the four stroke is a little bit lighter than the two stoke ! I just baught a 1973 TS 250 last week, a future video to come.
