TS250 can some one give me the year and usfulnes before it get broke up

[DR]

no worries Roger but I'll pass thanks I once entertained some wild notion of doing a full resto on a '69 TS but the reality is I have more than enough bikes/project now and adding more would be total insanity cheers

These old TS Suzukis can be made into pretty competitive pre '70 class bikes if you're pretty good with a hacksaw and grinder to knock as much weight as you can out of the frame and know a good porting bloke. They're very similar to the DT1 in as far as what needs to be done and if everything is done properly the end result is a pretty fast piece of kit.
Below is the ex Eddie Brooks TS that was one of the bikes to beat in its class back in the nineties. It's now owned by Sydneys Ray Atkins and ridden by his granddaughter Kathleen.

NIce bike, Im assuming its run now as a PRe 75 bike in club looking at the front end and top end.

Still im really diging the tanks.  do they fit on a TM ?

[Freakshow]

well heres them forks

[DR]

Those are the old TS 'clunker' forks Freaky, Not worth fitting to anything except a restoration project as they are pretty much hopeless anywhere except on the road. The TS tank has totally different mounting to the TM tank, it could be made fit but it would take a little work to make another rear mount. They aren't a small tank by any means either

Hey Freaky, have you got a pickup price on the whole lot?
I have a mate just around the corner from you.

[YUMASTEPSIDE]

...........do you want the roller Mick ?

[Freakshow]

Whats a whole lot ? or what bits did you want.  i only drop it of at the farm so i havent had a look at it yet ( took the fot in near dark)
ill pull it apart on the weekend and put the bit i want on one side and the other stuff on the other side, so if anyone interested happy to do some swap etc.

[Mick D]

Whats a whole lot ?

or if you are going to split it up

Mind you Freaky, how much do you want for the front wheel

[Freakshow]

Seems i was right, just got a call asking me do i want to buy the motor, as its sounds to fast for the kids go kart idea.

Still has the frame attatche to it so i guess it could be saved     What else does this motor fit, incase i have somethign easier to slip it into, sounds like its running fine thou.  Still what amoron would have been at least worth a few bucks more if he had just sold it as it was, and with the money he made, bought a proper go kart motor.

[oldfart]

freaky .... follow my Ts/Tm thread as this is what frame I have butchered up literaly

[DR]

Your frame is a later 250j/k frame from memory Stew. Not sure the early '69/'70 motors drop straight into the later frames..quite possibly they might but I've never tried to know

[Freakshow]

Nah dont need a new project, just figuring out if i need any of it.....
