Suzuki GT250 was an upgraded version of the T250. In fact, the very first models (released in Japan in 1971) were exactly the same bike, only the model name was different. When the model was presented in the rest of the world (in 1973), the additional "G" in front of the T250 model name was to show that the model has been modernized with a disc brake at the front and with a new Ram Air cylinder head. This forced the cool air to pass through the cylinders and behind the block. The same system was introduced in all of the air-cooled GT models (the GT750 was liquid-cooled).
In 1976 the Ram Air was dropped and the model phased out in 1981.
HDT was owned by Stewart Davis in 1991, then Gary Hodkin in 1993. Our vendor acquired it in December 2022 by which time it had been restored and although a runner it is not really his thing so it has sat in his garage.
