Grand Prix and IOM TT winner and head of Suzuki's racing team for many, many years.
It was with his guidance that many riders claimed fame on his Suzukis, namely, Sheene, Scwantz, Kenny JR, Lucky, Uncini. He was a racer himself so he knew how to treat riders and what they needed to win. He is the only Japanese racer to have ever won an IOM T.T.
