1974 Suzuki Trials Bike sold for $2,750 at the 2017 Mecum Las Vegas Motorcycle Auction
that Suzuki trials bike was a more capable serious trials bike than the other Japanese companies made. it even has an aluminum gas tank. maybe a chromoly frame. but not nearly as attractive looking as the Honda TL125 or TL250 with their pleasant and quiet 4 strokes, I bet the Suzuki was kinda pricey new. I was under the impression they did not make a whole lot of them, to lazy to Google it. I had a 86 Honda 200 Reflex trials bike. it was super quit. very uncomfortable seating position. you had to stand up most of the time. I can't be standing up all day while riding a motorcycle FFS.
