Here is the link to the trunk I got:

Their feedback isnt the best, but I didnt have any problems with them.

The trunk fits a scooter helmet with room to spare.



Im going to miss working on this thing :(

On the TS185, why did you get another tank, again? If it was rusted but didn't leak, just clean it out with some Muratic acid. If it leaked, just clean it and seal it. That original tank would look pretty cool on the bike.

Someone around here wants $500 for a '75 TS185. The same guy also wants $1000 for an old Yamaha IT250. Overpriced, I think, on both.

The paint is Duplicolor gunmetal grey.

The Suzuki's tank was rusted through and leaking gas. It was cheaper to just get a good tank off Ebay than to mess with trying to seal it.
