The 1979 SP 370 continued Suzuki's mid-size dual-purpose single, a 369 cc air-cooled four-stroke with a single-downtube tubular steel frame and wet-sump lubrication. It stayed true to a simple trail-bike formula with kick-start only, drum brakes and a 21-inch front wheel. It is mechanically the same as the 1978 model.
