You sound like me, those 70’s and 80’s bikes take me back to some great memories. I’ve had them all Hodakas, CanAms all the big four. I miss my Yamaha IT’s a lot. I regret selling them but due to shitty circumstances I had no choice.
Adorable bike... I dearly love the bikes from '70s, a tear drop gas tank, a seat and side covers and you have bike that looks like bike with a soul. Thanks for sharing, you are a lucky guy with a great taste.
One Darn Fine Ride there ! I love the strong pulling power Suzuki's have... Great for riding up in the mountains, and perfect for riding on the ski slopes in the Summer !!!
Cool bike, I had a TS185 and a TS250 as a kid, and have a TS185 in the garage right now. Very fun. We never got thew TS400 in the UK new, but a few have come in as imports, would love to try one.
I'd try to find some new crank seals and carb rubbers for future use. Our TS250 started burning gear oil and sucking air. It didn't run to well then. Up until then it was a great engine.
Smoky goodness! I had a blue 76. It was missing the stinger on the end of the pipe but sounded about the same as yours. Hard to find engine parts for, unlike the 250 and 185 TS.
Thx DD for an informative and entertaining video of a class is big bore 2 stroke enduro. FW*IW I bought a new '72 while stationed on a Gunboat home ported on Guam was a decent bike for it's day was a little heavier than the Yamaha RT2 I had previously owned but very capable of jungle junkets thru the interior of Guam. Put around 3k miles in 18mos I had it never left me stranded. I'm 70 now and still riding in dirt and street but have come to rely on push button starting on my RFS 525 EXC. Thx for sharing a d bringing back the TS 400 memories from 50yrs ago.
Great bike, average headlight. Step off a TS400 at about 60 miles per hour one night in 1976. Both me and the bike survived to ride again. Great memories.

Put sum sticky street tires on it and go full Hooligan!! My buddy did the same with his Yamaha 400 Enduro.

My Yamaha did that and it was just a seal that needed replaced.
