In a great chance of luck I cam accross yet another gem in the rough. This still needs allot of TLC as the previous but it is 100% complete even with the toolkit that the bike was sold with. I'll probably part out the other suzuki to pay for a few new parts on this one.

Well wheels were meant to stay on the ground :) Especially 40 year old wheels. And yes it does run, poorly but it does run.

I didn't realize how much stuff there was on ebay as far as parts for such old bikes. I found 3 pages of parts for this particular model including a pristine original unrestored version of this bike (originally owned by Ryan O'Neil and seen driven on the opening credits of Peyton Place.)

Good luck with your project.

Hey Kev, is that a set of BMX handle bars on that bike. They look a lot like a set I had as a kid.

I don't have $$ for a newer bike and I need something to keep me busy over the winter. When its done i'll know I restored it up from this and i'll have something to talk about :lol:

Like old cars bikes need love too...

ps: the handles are going, yes they look like freakin bmx handles!
