Suzuki called the RE5 the future of motorcycling, thanks to its innovative rotary engine and distinctive styling. This is the ’75 model, which had more interesting design characteristics like the ‘tin can’ instrument cluster. The ’76 (and final model) was a little neutered in an attempt to make the bike more conventional.
For more on the RE5, check out this write-up from Motorcycle Classics. This specific Suzuki RE5 (VIN: RE513929) has 5,223 miles and is adorned with the wonderfully-named Firemist Orange paint scheme. It was apparently a barn find that has been completely restored – if that’s true, the price ain’t bad! Find this RE5 for sale here on Craigslist in Liberty Borough, Pennsyvlania for $7,000.
