After Suzuki introduced the RG-Gamma series in 1983, the line grew to span displacements ranging from 250-500cc. Of particular note was the RG400 Gamma Walter Wolf, as it was a two-year-only model that was exclusively sold in Japan.
A true race-replica for the streets, it boasted the latest and greatest in two-stroke technology. Along with an advanced aluminum box frame, it also featured Suzuki’s “Full-Floater” rear suspension and a water-cooled square four. The 397cc engine produced 59 horsepower at 9,000 rpm.
The livery came about because of an Austrian businessman by the name of Walter Wolf. Having made his money in oil, Wolf proceeded to fund his passion for motorsport — first by sponsoring an F1 team and subsequently by sponsoring an RG500. In celebration of the bike’s seven Grand Prix championships, Suzuki sold 99 examples of a street-homologated race bike in the Canadian market. Not the be left out, Japan got a limited edition of the RG400 (as you see before you) done up in the paint job.
This example is VIN: HK31A108438. It came to Iconic as an import from Japan; prior history is not known.
The odometer shows 49,701 kilometers (30,882 miles).
