Title: Suzuki TS400 - what are they worth???
Post by: wrench on July 10, 2010, 09:15:12 pm: Hi all, first time post. Just wanted a honnest opinion on what TS400's are worth?
I have a matching numbers 76 ts400 with a compliance plate, semi restored.
A 73 rolling frame with non matching engine, and a 74 frame with a tank and guards and a few bits n pieces.
In total my collection of TS400 gear would make 2 complete bikes i'd reckon and have some spares left over.
Haven't really decided if i will sell them or not, i have been collecting parts for 10 years or so.
The 76 has had the frame sand blasted and powder coated, tank restored, guages in MPH and tacho reconditioned and repainted, all foot pegs and swingarm sand blasted and powder coated, mudguards painted, a lot of new chrome work and various other bits n pieces.
Just a rough idea would do of what the lot of it would bring???
Cheers.

Post by: wrench on July 14, 2010, 07:30:57 am: Thanks very much ;D Decided to keep them and finish puting the 76' back together. May sell them in a few more years time when the market has grown a little stronger perhaps.
