  • Project IND-SUZUKI AX100

    A full Rebuild journey has started...


    Dads first Bike and the first bike i ever sat on when i was a 6 months old. Not to forget the first bike have ever ridden. Fortunately bought one to restore like how it was from production line in 80's.


    Suzuki's first ever bike to be sold in INDIA, a classic bullet proof 2 stroke madness Motor.


    After over 18 years of ownership Dad sold an I have tried enough to see if i can get the AX100 back and failed to trace if it even exists. Thankfully i have found a very good bike from a close friend. This bike is in their family since 1985 and have clocked 32k Kms and i would say the engine is in mint condition.

    I have planned to do a strip down rebuild and have been collecting parts for a while and time to kick start the build.

    For the appreciation and encouragement i got on my previous build which motivated me to post the AX100 project

    RD build:

                  Washed all the dirt gathered in the past 33 years. Nothing complicated with the tail light wiring, have dried well and applied Wd40

                  The Speedometer Pointer was so fragile due to aged plastic, got a new needle and replaced. Cleaned the Dial and Carefully applied plastic/rubber polish. Serviced the gearwheels, greased and put them back.

                            congrats on your IND-Suzuki AX100 restoration....I have a 2002 Suzuki MAX100R and the 1984 IND-Suzuki AX100 ( RED ) which i'm planning to restore both. That AX100 in the below pics was bought by my dad before his marriage, I rode on it as a kid in the petrol tank, learnt to ride on it during my highschool days...now its still working smoothly today in 2019....I've lucky that my dad didn't sell it...

                              Excellent buddy.. mine is 85 model and I had similar experiences like you did.. remember sitting in the tank and later learnt riding a two wheeler on it.

                              All the best for your restoration plan
