SUZUKI TO RESTORE MORE SHEENE BIKES AT MOTORCYCLE LIVE<\/h1>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Three more of Barry Sheene\u2019s race bikes have arrived at Suzuki GB from the family home in Australia, and two of them will be restored at this year\u2019s Motorcycle Live, which takes place at Birmingham\u2019s NEC from 16-24 November.<\/p>\n

Watch the arrival and uncrating of the bikes in the video below:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Sheene\u2019s last Grand Prix bike \u2013 a DAF Trucks-sponsored 1984 Harris-framed XR45 RG500 \u2013 arrived alongside a 1978 XR27 RG500 and a special XR23A 652cc big bore RG500, raced in the Trans Atlantic series and F1 Championship in 1979.<\/p>\n

In conjunction with Suzuki\u2019s Vintage Parts Programme, both the XR45 and XR23A will be refurbished and fired into life once again at Motorcycle Live, while the XR27 will be displayed alongside Sheene\u2019s 1976 and 1977 world championship-winning XR14s, both of which were also restored thanks to the Vintage Parts Programme in 2017.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Suzuki GB aftersales marketing coordinator, Tim Davies, said, \u201cThis is another special moment for us. These bikes haven\u2019t been back in the UK since Barry and his family emigrated to Australia, so it\u2019s quite something to get them out of the crates and see them here again. But it\u2019s going to be even more of a special occasion when they live again, thanks to the restoration process which will be carried out by former \u201870s and \u201880s Grand Prix technician Nigel Everett and former mechanic for Barry Sheene, Martyn Ogborne. And it\u2019s a great opportunity for fans to again see, hear, and smell them as they would have existed at the time. We can\u2019t wait.\u201d<\/p>\n

Launched in 2013, Suzuki\u2019s Vintage Parts Programme exists to help owners of older Suzukis keep their machines maintained or help with restoration projects, with a host of parts available from cylinders, pistons, and conrods, to a range of bearings and seals, and everything in between.<\/p>\n
