The spacer blocks and rubber straps for the shock reservoir are still available from Suzuki. A bit of a hint with the CDI strap, make sure that you use the genuine strap and rubber plate that fits between the CDI and the frame bracket. If you use something other you run the risk of squashing/distorting the CDI and failing it. I had the same issue where cable ties had been fitted by an over enthusiastic owner and caused an intermittent no spark.
I'd also check on the radiator louvers. This model needs all the cooling it can get and the pics show someting covering most of the radiator. From the factory these bikes had a simple expanded wire unit that did 3 fifths of stuff all when it came to protecting the radiator. Last thing you need is a seizure from overheat. ;)

They are coming out of the woodwork!
Good to see another '84 come alive,post more pics when you can.

The Suzuki accessories book has always been very comprehensive. You will soon be able to purchase your new VW in Suzuki yellow [with blue trim] ;)

Probably stating what you already know rm nut- front brake cable should run in front of the number plate.

Its a long shot, a young gun used to road race one around here in the mid eighties, and at one meeting the bike started no worries, but would not run anything over the pilot jet. Turned out the young bloke had re-packed the muffler, and in his desire to seal EVERYTHING up he used great lashings of silicone on the muffler/pipe joint, which ended up with a massive blob of silicone partially blocking the muffler. When muffler was taken off, bike was faultless, so you may be on the right track with the muffler. i assume the top end, reeds, carb etc are all ok?

had a full top and bottom rebuild carbie new second hand floats new needle new needle slide new needle seat new throttle cable rewound and wired electric I'm hopping it not the cdi only thing i have not replaced this has been 1 costly Itch i had to scratch

Not long back I got my 125E motor rebuilt, top and bottom etc, and it would not rev out cleanly. After checking carby, tank breather ,fuel tap filter, swapping coils and CDI's, and as it turned out, numerous other things- for example I found a rag in the fuel tank- don't ask me how! I was twitching every time I looked at it. One day , when grasping at straws ,I took the mag cover and noticed the the nut that holds the rotor was not on the shaft as much as the other RM sitting beside it- so I grabbed the rotor and wobbled it and sure enough it had both in and out movement and was loose on the shaft/keyway. This is the way it came back from the engine builder. Tightened it properly and we both lived happily ever after...till next time!
