It’s a perfect describer of Suzuki’s first-generation GSX-Rs. Because if ever there was a ‘radically new’ motorcycle, or one that was ‘beyond established principles,’ it was Suzuki’s 1985 GSX-R750 – and the GSX-R1100 that followed in ’86. As one motorcycle journalist wrote in 1985, “Sportbikes will soon be divided into two categories: before the GSX-R, and after.” Nicely put. The instant it debuted in late 1984 at Germany’s Cologne show, the GSX-R750 electrified the motorcycle world. Few in attendance, or those who read about the bike in motorcycle magazines in later months, could fully absorb the bike’s radical full-fairing look, its astounding dry weight, or the idea that careful and conservative Suzuki had built – and planned to sell! – what was basically a road racer with lights. It certainly looked the part. With its clip- ons, dual headlights, ultra-lithe aluminum chassis and purposeful, business-only stance, the GSX-R appeared as if it might have rolled into the viewing hall after an hour-long endurance-race session at LeMans or Suzuka.

Today, Brembo has over 10,000 employees, the brake discs used in MotoGP are carbon also with rain conditions, and the victories accumulated in the 500/MotoGP class, as of July 30, 2018 are 472. The last victory of a bike without Brembo brakes in the premier class of the world championship dates back to May 21, 1995. Notwithstanding Brembo brakes are not imposed by regulation, in the last 23 years all the best riders have always chosen Brembo brake systems, with the awareness that to go fast you also have to brake hard. The rider who won the most with Brembo is Valentino Rossi.

  • Randy Mamola
    Randy Mamola Divenuto professionista a soli 16 anni, Randy esordì nel Motomondiale nel 1979 in sella ad una Yamaha 250, con la quale conquistò 3 podi e chiuse il campionato in quarta posizione. Amava guidare la moto fidandosi solo del suo istinto e senza mai calcolare nulla: sorpassi impossibili, staccate incredibili, intraversate, fumate di gomme e pieghe oltre i limiti della fisica erano all’ordine del giorno. Rischiava molto e spesso, anche quando non era necessario. Sull’asciutto e sul bagnato, di cui era uno spe - cialista. Con gomme nuove e con gomme finite. E fu proprio per questa sua spiccata propensione al rischio che Randy Mamola, a differenza dei suoi illustri conterranei, rimase un Re senza corona. Suzuki, Honda, Yamaha, Cagiva e ancora Yamaha. In tredici stagioni nella classe regina corse prati - camente con tutte le moto, raccogliendo 13 vittorie e 54 podi. Peccato solo per quel titolo mondiale più volte sfiorato, ma mai arrivato. Nel 1980 fu Kenny Roberts a negarglielo, nel 1981 Marco Lucchinelli, nel 1984 Eddie Lawson e nel 1987 Wayne Gardner. Generoso in pista e nella vita, nel 1986 Randy cominciò a raccogliere fondi per Save the Children, un’associazione che si occupa tuttora dei bambini africani. E fu proprio durante uno dei suoi viaggi in Africa che notò qualcosa che lo colpì profondamente: le motoci - clette venivano utilizzate per il trasporto di medicinali e di apparecchiature mediche. Ma o c versavano anche in pessime condizioni. Questo lo c spinse, dieci anni più tardi, a fondare assieme ad altre a persone Riders for Healt, una onlus che si occupa di for - b a nire moto e addestramento tecnico per la loro manuten - T zione in Africa.
