To be honest, I'd be waaaay happier on your TS185... at least it's a 2 stroke!
I do like the little Honda Ag bike... dual sidestands... very cool!

Somebody else can dig for pics but this is a pretty cool vid. I'm guessing the guy is single judging by his kitchen & er, eccentric tastes in bike styling.

Do it! This is the inspiration thread after all! Start with something easy... a detailed cleaning of all the nooks and crannies, surface rust etc?
I've decided that I want to re mod my TS into a Cafe racer, the two elements that want to change are the handle bars and the seat. However I just realized after finishing the first model that If I wanted to change the handlebars I would also be needing to be look at changing the light housing and instruments on the front of the bike to the same one's that were on the old school TS models. I need to do something color wise with the seat, I'm thinking of a blue and white gradient. The plan with the tail light so far is to build it into the seat, the seat will also house the indicators.

Silly question... WTF is cafe racer about any of those pictures?
The seat and the riding position (handle bars) at least so far. Its still a work in progress (to be honest it looks more like a scrambler, but I'm cool with that). The challenge I've set myself is to change the style of the bike without compromising its cosmetic style too much, you should be able to still recognize it as being a Suzuki TS.
I'm open to suggestions on what I can do to improve the design.
