Clutch Play

I’m not a real fan of “cheap Jap bikes” from back in the day, but this old Suzuki was so incredibly clean inside the clutch cover, I was quite impressed!! Compared to a Triumph or Harley from the same period, it’s apples and oranges… The engineering is akin to modern bikes of most any breed. Not to mention the low end torque of this small displacement (by today’s standards) two cylinder, two-stroke is phenomenal!! Leaking crank seal replaced and this little scoot should now be a fun and reliable!!
