Though I'm a bit skeptical at the originality.  Looks too good to be true.

Go for that TS-185. These are cool bikes. I love my 1973 I just bought.

That bike sure does look good.  It's a TS185 Sierra.  Suzuki never made a TC anything.  I have its big brother, a 1977 TS250 Savage.  The thing with old two-strokes is you have to love two-strokes to want one.  Reason being for the same money you can find a newer good used four-stroke for the same money and they're better in every way, except the sound!  :woohoo:

I missed the electric start.
That makes it the TC-185 - the brother of the TS-185.
TS was the "Sierra". 5 speed transmission and only a kick starter. Rear carrier (which I have on mine) was optional.
TC was the "Ranger Woods". It had electric start AND a 10 speed transmission: 5 speed with a high/low lever for street or off-road rising. Originally came stock with a chrome rear carrier in 1974-1976. Not sure after that.

$1950 is a steal for one in that condition.

Bill: I now have a 1973 TS-185. Been reading up about this bike and it's brother the TC-185. Yes - there is a TC-185.

I suggest bank robbery. It's a straight forward means to earn money on the side as a student.

Never heard of the TC.  Well done!

I'd love that tc. Mid Ohio vintage days near Mansfield has the largest vintage swap meet in July. Go every year. Would love to roll in on that. I am a minority cause I don't have an antique plate in the GS.

Edit: TC posting deleted. Most likely gone.
