I know this may be a long shot but does anybody have any experiences with the Suzuki Trail Hopper??? I think they are neat little 2 strokes but have never ridden one. How hard is it to get parts for these bikes??? I saw one for sale once, but the guy was asking $500, too much if you ask me. Any info would be appreciated.

Also, any personal experiences with these bikes???

Suzuki K-15 Hillbilly
Honda S65
Honda S90
Honda CA110

Thanks!

i have a 72 mt50 trailhopper. fun bike comes stock with speedo,horn,brakelite and street legal.rare bike but some parts are available mostly on ebay.$500 isnt overpriced if its nice shape and complete.

Thanks......maybe the price was right. It needed some new bars and it did run. I was kind of worried about getting even just the basic parts such as sprockets, gaskets, seals etc.

Thanks again for replying!

Minibikedike, How fast is the Trail Hopper compared to the z50??? Is it a three speed??? What parts are very hard to find and or expensive??? Where is a good source for parts???

Thanks!

The Trailhopper is a 3 speed semi auto like a z50. It's a 2 stroke motor that makes a little more horsepower than a stock z, but the top speed is a little less because of the gearing (if both bikes are stock). You can get parts on eBay but they are much harder to come by than Honda parts.

Good luck!

my trailhopper peaks at about 28 mph on the speedo. the motor could be a lil tired though(original topend).its got the typical zippy powerband with oil injection and yes the 3speed auto tranny.nicely built with steel fenders,adjustable seat and bars.parts seem to be out there and parts bike come up for sale here and there pretty cheap.fun bike.what color is yours?they came in red green and blue i think
