    S Reg GT185

    Blue, with rusty bits.

    All there except side panel and battery.

    Needs some TLC.

    What the hell, it was only 20ukp :)

    The moment I hit send I just knew that someone would come along... Why
    am I not surprised who it was?

    I'm sure there was probably some obscure 1970's Maico crosser as well.

    Oh and Suzuki's own TS of course.

  7. I *think* I've got some brand new conrods for one of those, in one of my
    boxes of bits.

  11. Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, YTC#1
    I don't know if there's much (any?) commonality of parts with the TS185,
    but I inherited a number of 185 bits & pieces from Dodger when I bought
    the TS250.

    Let me know if you want me to rummage.

    I'd say there's none at all. The GT was a twin cylinder roadster style
    machine that bears no resemblance to a TS

    It was the bestest bike *ever* in November 1978.

    No, about April.

    How was I supposed to know you had to top up the oil tank *all the
    time*?

    You can't be a bad as the twat I dealt with at the Kawasaki shop who
    topped his up AR125 with washing up liquid. "It's green and slippery so
    I thought it would do the same job" was his excuse.

    That'll be a new crank, barrel and piston please
