    I‘m age 59 and had a lot of fun with Suzuki bikes 125 cc and 250cc etc in 70ies and 80ies - I dream for those days now when I watch your nice video riding in snow!
    I found a brand new TS 185 in white color and want to buy it next week.

    I grew up riding a 1974 ts185 my dad bought from one of my teachers. I saw that wheelie in the snow... I’m impressed 😂👍

    I'm so glad I found this channel. I lived, slept, ate, breathed, and dreamed about nothing
    but motocross from 1974 to 1981. I worked at a Honda/Suzuki dealer in 1979-80 and knew
    every dirt bike every made up to that point. I will visit this museum one day soon but not soon
    enough. Thank you, guys!

    Dad got me a mint 77 one of those for Christmas when I was 12. He had it in the living room with lights and garland on it as the tree. Best Christmas memory.

    This is the bike I am restoring right now. I rode the crap out of it as a kid and I'm having a blast on it.

    I had the exact same one down to the colour bought and used in the UK in 1976. Had it stolen twice, the second time in 1978 being a professional job from which it was never recovered. Great bike, great fun!

    Shore is a nice sounding 185. I remember riding my friends KE175 (orange) had to get it to the curb to hop on it. Fun bike I had a KD100 in 1976 & thought man these taller bike's are the SHIT. Then I had to get back on the100 still fun as hell win ur a little kid 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁

    I had restored two several years ago. A man from England came to my house in Michigan to ship back to Europe. Because of emissions they can’t manufacture them but they get grandfathered in.

    Payed $ 1300.00 and mines a little nicer then yours , lighter then the Ts-125 Duster and much lighter then the Ts-250 the Ts-185 -W- a power to weight ratio best in class it was the best value in the market at the time I owned one when I was 14 years old and this 1975 I have now is awesome love it , thank's for the great video and a shame today we have to pay so high a price for simple pleasures - oh and quit having so much fun at work

    Ah, the TS 185. The first bike my brother got, and blew up on the same day many moons ago..
    We called it the "Tough Shit" 185, because he bought it off his buddy for $50 and didnt have anything left to fix it when it blew 20 mins later..

  • @andyanaoutdoors2487
    @andyanaoutdoors2487 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Bought the same bike at a yard sale for $80. Had it running in about 15 minutes and rode the death out of it for several years. Gave it nothing but abuse and neglect. Extremely reliable bike. Sold it off for $200 after trying my best to kill it.
