My beloved Suzuki TS100 is basically a lump of rust due to my Dad not being able to travel and help me restore it now :( I have had some interest over the years but have refused to sell it due to my Dad, but as that is now never likely to happen I guess I finally have to part with my first ever roadbike (massive sulk lol).

I now have another interested party but I have no idea what to sell it for, I randomly suggested £50 and he's now offerring £30-35 - I've looked quickly on Ebay but nothing is in as bad as a condition as mine, and those working are all over the place with prices........so am lost as to what is a fair price......I'm not sure much is salvageable on it, BUT I was going to throw in the original user manual and an original Haynes manual both of which are going for around £12-20 each. I've got to ring him by 9pm, thanks for any input.

    I'd put it on ebay, and would be ok with £100 or more.

    Definately ebay it. I recently sold a cz175 that was probably only 75% complete at best and agreed a price of £87 for it (I'd put it on for £100 or make offer on a 30 day listing, under parts).

    Guy came and took it away couple of days later, over the moon with it.

    Really? :eek: Everything is seized up and rusted through though, it would take masses of work to get it looking good let alone running again :o

  • Get on ebay and search for TS100. Click on used and look through the spares.

    Ok, they're asking prices and not what they're selling for, but theres got to be more than £50 worth of salvageable parts.
