1986 Suzuki RG400 Gamma HK31A-104834 w/6,781 km (4,205 mi) | Square-4 2-stroke | Japanese GP replica

The Suzuki RG400 Gamma is one of the defining Japanese sport bikes of the 1980s—lightweight, sharp-handling, and powered by an exotic square-four 2-stroke engine derived directly from Suzuki’s Grand Prix racing program.

Unlike conventional inline-four motorcycles, the RG400 uses a compact twin-crank “square four” layout with rotary disc valve induction and Mikuni flat-slide carburetors. The result is a motorcycle with unmistakable sound, razor-sharp throttle response, and the visceral riding experience that made 1980s 2-stroke sport bikes legendary.

This example shows just 6,781 kilometers and presents in overall solid, honest condition with attractive original-style bodywork and factory-inspired graphics. The white/red/black livery is characteristic of Suzuki endurance-racing and period RG Gamma styling from the mid-1980s.

The bike appears fundamentally clean and well-preserved, though it has been unused for some time and should be recommissioned prior to regular riding.

Recommended Recommissioning

  • Tires
  • Battery
  • Full fluid service
  • Carburetor cleaning/service
  • Fuel system inspection
  • Brake system inspection

Condition Notes
Overall solid cosmetic condition with typical age-related wear visible in detailed areas. The bodywork presents well and the bike retains the raw, purposeful feel that defines early RG models.

Ownership & Support
The RG Gamma benefits from strong enthusiast support worldwide, with good parts and technical knowledge still available through specialist suppliers and owner communities.
