Bought the baddest bike ever made!

[Lucid]

Inspiration for both the Hayabusa and the zx14, and future superbikes to come.

Bought this recently off some pothead on the southside of my city. The damn tag was $250+ because it was...eh, about twenty years out of date.

Starts and runs every kick! I love her for zippin around town. (top speed, 45 down a steep hill with wind)

1966 Suzuki M31
55cc, just large enough to be called "Motorcycle"
Super rare. I had to order an air filter from Cambodia and a repair manual from Indonesia (repair manual just to see the mixture ratios because no one has these and I couldn't find the info online!)

Inarguably the world's best grocery getter:

I like this goofy old thing.

M stood for mileage, 31 was how many it got to before it broke..... just kidding. I had a couple of old Honda's similar to that, but I never got them running.

Looks cool and for $250 couldn't go wrong with that price.

Did they have a Drive Mode Selector back then? I am sure she is pretty wicked till you get used to her torque curve

Add a yoshi, ebc brakes, Pilot Powerss and Power Demander and you can head to the track. Actually that looks like a pretty good specimen!

[Sum Beach]

That is definitly Old School Cool!!! It looks to be in pretty good shape considering its age. But still any plans for a restoration or just leave as is?

 

[StromBusa]

Better make sure the traction control is working It might get away from you outta the hole..... Nice pick!

Lol thanks for the comments. Even the funny ones; I don't mind, I don't this too seriously. It's old, rare, and goofy. I feel like an old Japanese grandpa from the 70s while on this thing. I might use it as a pit bike around the drag strip.

I will probably leave it as is, but maybe reupholster the seat. Put a new front tire, might put a new rear, THEN let the knee dragging commence!
