Vehicle Detail
Beautiful 1972 Suzuki TC90. NEEDS MOTOR WORK!I bought this 11 years ago with the intention of fixing it up. It is a sharp bike and it started right up and ran great but makes a whirring noise when it runs. The guy I bought it from, who owns a motorcycle shop, said he thinks its the crank bearings and that somebody probably ran it out of injector oil. That guy has been around bikes for decades, so I think he is probably right and my conclusion was the same. I bought the parts, including crank bearings, all gaskets needed (see pic), except 1 because the dealer had torn it and I made him order another one, then the Suzuki dealer moved to another city and I never did pick up the last gasket, so you'll need that.I never tore the bike completely down, I just took off a couple of covers to see if there was anything obvious and there was not.I put the covers back on it but did not hook up the clutch cable, I can't find the little hook thing for it.I left gas set in this for about 10 years, so now its gummed up. Gas barely comes out of the tank, but it does not seem to be rusty, just gunked up. I did get it to run for a few seconds a few times and it ran great, but still has the whirring bearing type noise.Has 1,437 original miles and is the nicest one of these I have ever seen.Also has the dual range transmission.It does come with a clear title.Please look at the pics, I think they describe it well, but please ask any question you have. Please note the following:- Clutch lever appears to be held on by a piece of wire and the cable is not hooked up to the engine- Has a small scratch in tank which you can see in the pic- Most chrome is good but headlight chrome is not great and there are a couple of minor rust pits on the fork- Rear tail light has a little piece broken around the edge (visible in pic)- Needs Motor Work as described above Buyer responsible for shipping.You are buying this as-is.I have set a low reserve of $300.Thanks
