Suzuki T-20 vs S-32

Post by oldguyoldbike »

New here, just signed up and I'm enjoying the site.
I recently acquired a 1966 Suzuki T-20/X-6 Hustler and I've begun searching for parts.
I was wondering if anyone knows if the front fender from the S-32 is the same?
Thanks

8) Hi,they certainly look very similar in photos,but manufactures do odd things with different models,even if it's only a difference in how things mount to fork legs etc.I really love the T20,& they are very collectable & bringing good money around the World PS Welcome to the Forum :up:
Cheers,
Roger

I saw that. Just read somewhere that a TC250 fender is wider....

Im pretty sure that they are the same.the only difference between the T20 and the TC250 is the mufflers.if you google both and have the pictures side by side you will see no difference apart from mufflers.also have you seen this http://www.t20suzuki.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The eBay seller thinks the part number is 53110-11710, but he is unsure of the part number because it was faded.

That part number is listed for the 69 T20 & TC250.

Thanks jabcb. The diagrams I have found so far omitted a lot of the unavailable parts, including the front fender. I thought they were the same until I looked at this page that has a comment claiming otherwise.http://www.diablocycle.com/TC250-Restoration.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
I found a painted TC250 fender on eBay and ordered it. Guess we will find out.
Thanks to all for the input. Now if I can find a side cover knob...

I just bought an S32, and am searching for parts..... It *seems* to me the two bikes may share some common non-engine parts, but I can't find confirmation of this either......

You might find a printed parts manual really useful. Its likely you will find one on eBay.

The links I previously provided are for a dealership that recently updated its software.
As a result, a lot of bikes we have are no longer listed.

Here are some new links for Partzilla.
S32: http://www.partzilla.com/parts/search/S ... parts.html
T20: http://www.partzilla.com/parts/search/S ... parts.html

You might also find your local dealers website useful.
Lots of dealers now have online parts systems.

A printed parts manual is basically the same as what's online, but there are no parts missing because they are NLA.
Sometimes there are notes about parts in the printed manuals.

A printed parts manual might tell you what the differences are between the 1966 T20 & what's online.

But on the other hand you might decide buying it was a waste of $$$.

Sounds like that might clear some headaches.
Sorry I'm new to this. I bought a FA 50 earlier summer, and the s32 is my second 2 wheel toy.... I'm still learning
