#Suzuki #Spain - That's it. No more Suzuki motorcycles will be built in Spain for the foreseeable future. The last one rolled out and got hauled away by truck, and now the Suzuki factory in Spain is closed.

Sniff.

Things haven't been going smoothly for Suzuki lately. Suzuki Cars in the USA are in trouble, Suzuki motorcycle factory in Spain closed down, and now India, they're having labor troubles.

It looks like there's a strike coming, and that because Suzuki management suspended 3 union workers for beating up senior management in the factory..........

A TV commercial from way back, 1976 to be exact. It's the kind of advertisements you used to see in those days, bland, often humorous, and nothing about the motorcycle.

The motorcycle company is Suzuki, and it's all about having fun. Three young guys are out searching for Bigfoot. At the end they find him, and then the tag line says that Suzuki motorcycles are reliable.... not bad.

Nice TV commercial for Suzuki, for both their motorcycles and cars. A beautiful woman (Natalie Denise Sperl) rides her Suzuki motorcycle while her friend/husband races her in his Suzuki car.

The car is a four-wheel, so you can guess what he's going to do.

Guess who wins...

The rotary (or better known as Wankel) engine used by Suzuki for their new motorcycle was short lived. A different type of engine could have been a blessing to many people in 1974, but the new motorcycle engine never took.

Despite that, they managed to run a TV commercial back in 1975. Not exactly an advertisement that will get people to flock to buy the bike...

English designer Phil Pauley redesigned the incredible Suzuki Nuda concept presented in 1986 in Tokyo. He added a canopy, and called the new motorcycle the Crossbow Canopy Concept.

Although it has some good points, it's not a practical motorcycle. But it does look great, and should do good in the movies...

Nice advertisement I found in France for the 2012 Suzuki GSX-R1000 motorcycle. Bring back simplicity, no gadgets, just you and the motorcycle.

Just because there's snow and ice, doesn't mean you can't go and have fun on your motorcycle. And it doesn't even have to be an off-road bike with big studded tires, just some spikes in your tires will do the trick (just look at the spikes on the tires...).

I saw this funny, X-rated, print advertisement in a French motorcycle magazine for the Suzuki Gladius.

The tag line reads "Position Number 1: Take advantage of your agility to surprise the four cylinders"....

Suzuki unveiled at the Frankfurt car exhibition their latest motorcycle, the Urban X-Over.

Based on the V-Strom 650, the motorcycle has a complete new look & feel.
