Amazing old Japanese footage of the 1963/64 Motorbike 50cc World Grand Prix, including the Isle of Man TT races. 30 minutes of rare footage in black and white. For more information, visit www.suzuki-gb.co.uk and click on “Suzukipedia”
@greenecycle fascinating – thanks for the info!
At about 1:30, Hugh Anderson from New Zealand.. Google Hugh Anderson Suzuki for more. Great footage. Thanks for posting.
@DarkGuardian256 barely reach 100+ kph?! these GP-bikes were able to get up to about 110 MPH (about 175 kph), had up to 14 gears and the most powerful ones were rated at just under 20hp – CRAZYYYY!
at least they have helmets….if they fall at that spd..they probbly die even 50cc’s barely reach 100+ kph
Who were the riders? I think I recognise some of them but many thanks for posting this.
