Win Kevin Schwantz TT GSX-R1000

Suzuki GB donate unique Schwantz supersports machine for BEN charity auction

Tweet
Posted: 2 December 2009
by Visordown News

SUZUKI GB have donated for auction a unique Suzuki GSX-R1000 built especially for 500GP legend Kevin Schwantz.

The machine was constructed for the 1993 500GP champ when he visited the Isle of Man in 2007 for the TT centenary celebrations. The one-off special features a paint-scheme of the legendary rider's RGV500 race bike, with additional Yoshimura exhaust system. The bike's been autographed by Schwantz, too.

The unique GSX-R will be auctioned as part of the BEN Charity Ball in December.

For more information on the auction contact Kelly Neal on 01344 294720 or Kelly.neal@ben.org.uk
