Restoring Suzuki TC90

    Greeting ALL...this is my first posting here...I had a Suzuki TC90 back in '70 when I was 15 (do the math, yep I'm a dinosaur), and it was the coolest little trail bike, I could climb just about any hill. I have been restoring vintage bikes as a hobby lately , I have a '73 Norton Commando and a '67 BSA Lightning, but that TC90 was my first bike and I loved it. So, I found a 1970 TC90 a few weeks ago, and have prepping it, prior to starting, as there was no ignition lock and no battery as found. It has good compression, and I now have the ignition lock and key for it, just awaiting a 6v battery. I found a Suzuki service manual for the bike, which is really good, but there is one area that is not covered in that manual, that I am pondering over. This bike has is 4 gears, dual range. There is no mention in the manual about adjusting the dual range actuating rod. There is a t-handle that you click into either low or high range, but the threaded actuating rod is very loose on the t-handle linkage. I would like to have the rod in the correct position before I start the bike. Anyone out there have any experience with this bike, or might know where I could ask further? Also, are there any other forums that I could check out?
    Thanks

    I have no idea, personally. However, when i am in doubt, I Google it out. Hahaha! Have you tried using Google to find what you need, or maybe contacted your local Suzuki shop to see if the wrenches there have any idea? That is what I would do if no one comes in here to answer. Do you have any pictures of the bike? We love pictures of rebuilds and such.
