TS 100 MX?

[Tim754]

Subject heading is the question   Was there ever a rotary valve one like the TS90MX. I cannot find any info on one. Cheers Tim754

I think that Suzuki didn't bother as the TM100L was in the works and released at the end of 1973.

TS 90 MX is a TS 100 rolling frame very different to a TS90 , look at pics in previous post TS 90 MX has a single down tube frame ala TS 100.
TS 90 MX motor is very similar to a TS 100 with different Aluminium cylinder , rotary disc, manifold , 28mm carb, Internal rotor CDI ignition, expansion chamber .
The Ignition and chamber are very similar to a TM 125 but are not interchangable,
TS 90 MX is very different to a Kitted TS 90  and shares its origins with the TS 100.
Brent J knows a lot more about them than i do , he had one in the day. I believe they were sleeved down to a 90cc to fit into Japanese domestic race classes , much the same as a TS 185 hop up kit is actually 175cc to fit in the 175 race class

Easy enough to make it 100cc Tim

First you gotta find one 

Lozz will post that barrell this week

TS90 with R/T kit



my TS90 is the '70 model with the cast iron barrel as pictured above if anyone has a later alloy/steel liner type barrel thats useable I'd be interested. Out of interest TS100 cylinder won't fit a TS90

Hmmm well looks like a new project in the wind Umm anyone got an early TS100 bottom end , I have more than a dozen TC100 gearboxs but only one TS that came from a dam and is totally knackered. Cheers Tim754

what's the project Tim, TS100 or TS90? I have 'some' TS100 spares if needed but I don't have bugger all for the 90's IF you need piston rings give me a yell as I have oodles of them in near all oversizes from memory

[Tim754]

Need  TS 100 parts Doc mostly a complete gearbox, as building one with high/low dual range TC box might be a bit weird even for me . I have plenty of top ends to pick over and choose from but will remember the piston/rings offer for sure.

[Lozza]

How do those high/low boxes work a different primary ratio or something like that?

No problems Bill.......been a few repo's lately

[DR]

will see what I have Tim, I know 1 TS100 had water damage and I think the other 100 I have in bits was a TC but I'll have a look tomorrow and double check for sure.

whilst on the subject of TS100's, would anyone have a TS100ER or TS125ER swingarm or an RM100B/C head they wish to part with?..all for the same project don't suppose anyone's tried an RM125A/B/C tranny in the 6 speed TS100/125 engines??

[Tim754]

Lozza I will  get  the parts book pages emailed to you , that will explain the system far better than me to a knowledgable engineer such as yourself. Cheers Tim         (what a gutless cop out hah! )
