Please help me welcome my most recent acquisition - a 1976 Suzuki A100 Go-Fer. It's not the prettiest one out there, but it's complete and was within a day's drive of home. AND it still has the original decal on the battery cover.  :olaf:

M in SC and I are going to see if it'll fire off this coming weekend.

The old Suzuki A100 commuter bike. Unloved and unwashed but will run forever.

Thanks! I needed another small cc single to keep the AR80 company.

This one has already gotten a bath, but it still has a long way to go.

We had at least three problems with the ignition system, but once we got a spark there was little doubt it'd run. And smoke. Really a lot.  :celebrate:

one case in point on that is the resistor in the plug cap. supposed to be 5k ohm, this is what it was (see pic). some would say 'just replace it or bypass it' and while, thats true, the spring was also corroded . just replace the dang cap.

also, intermittent spark after fixing the mouse eaten wiring, was determined ot be dirty poits, but mostly a dirty connector in the 6 pin from the motor to the rest of the bike. went old school, wd 40 and it worked. will get replaced according to matt.

Another one saved - good work gentlemen.  :whoop:
