LOOK BID BUY!!!It's that time of year when a man needs something to tinker with in the garage. SCROLL DOWN FOR MORE PIC's & DESCRIPTION. This cracking little 1975 Suzuki TS185M Trail bike has recently been imported from North America where it has spent all its life – the air is thin and the climate is far kinder to motorcycles than ours. This and the fact it's only showing 9373 miles and has been in dry storage for the last umpteen years have helped maintain its boyish good looks. PLEASE CHECKOUT THE PICTURES. As you can see this bike is very nearly complete missing just the l/h mirror. indicators & sprocket cover. The bike has obviously stood a while so the battery is flat. Sadly the wheel rims are both dented as is the fuel tank. BUT NOW FOR THE GOOD NEWS. The bike is every bit as nice as it looks here. The wheels are clean with good hubs & brake plates. Forks & yokes look straight with good chrome. Tail light assy is good as are the headlight & hangers. Clocks look clean but the speedo obviously has issues!?. Fuel tank is squeaky clean inside. Carburetor is free sliding off the twist grip. Exhaust system is original & solid. Seat is in very good condition throughout. Shox are damping fine. The engine is cosmetically very clean. it turns over nicely off the kick starter – sounds/feels great & has compression but we haven't run it up. If you require any further information please give us a call or better still visit our showroom and have a good look over the bike for yourself – after all who are you going to believe me or your own eyes?
