The ever intriguing Suzuki RV50 Van Van.
The name Van Van (pronounced Ban Ban in Japanese) is supposed to evoke both the sound of the two stroke engine and the sense of fun you get from riding this quirky wee bike. Perched atop super stocky 10-inch wheels, with a long wheelbase (relative to its height) it is a joy to look at and to ride. Despite its small stature it is designed to get a bit muddy with a raised exhaust and engine guard. A torpedo shaped air box on the right, rear rack and a hand pump - these often go missing but this bike still has it - complete the charming yet practical design. An excellent example of a Van Van RV50 from 1982. Only 2km (1 mile) on the clock.
