Suzuki GT750
The Suzuki GT750 — nicknamed "Water Buffalo" or "Kettle" — was the first Japanese water-cooled production motorcycle. Its 738 cc three-cylinder two-stroke engine was unusual for street riding, and its smooth power delivery, expansive frame, and disc front brake made it more refined than its smoky reputation suggested.
