so I spent a couple of hours in the garage last night, looking for spindles and bolts to help get it up on it's wheels so I could see what was missing.............
and here it is - a 1968 Suzuki K11P - worth restoring?

Re: Basket-case Suzuki
They were little crackers the Suzuki 50s and 80s back on the 1960's and early 70's.
I had a M12 and thrashed the nuts off it for about a year and passed my bike test on it before getting a 250. Fond memories.
Don't think I ever got a picture of it. Shame.
Don't think you'll ever get that basket started though Garry. I could show you how to weave though if you want to do a resto on it!

Think of how stupid the average person is, then realise that half of them are more stupid than that.

The bike looks like a great little project! Well worth restoring if you want a rare little bike. I'd say it would be quite a sweet machine with a lot of love and attention. Maybe not as fast as a Hayabusa, but quick enough to enjoy buzzing around town on.
I can see it costing you a few quid to restore, but not many to run
