Help please. Looking for Suzuki TS185 for TV Show

[greg.clarke]

Hi

I am looking for a Suzuki TS 185 in the color Blue for a TV show I am working on... the shoot dates will be in Auckland on the
14th or 15th of March during the night.

I am hoping for a bike thats road legal and if based outside of Auckland I can try and arrange transport for the bike or cover the
costs involved in getting it here.

The bike is preferred to be in pretty good nick and if the owner fits the 'actors' body shape Im happy to pay the owner to perform
in the scenes (driving around the streets at night)

The motorbike will be fitted with a rig and camera for filming purposes, but not heavy enough to majorly affect the riding of the bike.

If anybody out there can help, please

Come down to Christchurch and you can use my incredibly rough as fuck yellow TS185. The oil bottle and seat are tied on with cable ties, and anything metal is either rusty, or not rusty because oil has leaked onto it.

thats a rather specific request.
Why not borrow a tf125 or ag100 off a dealer? Theyre old enduro looking strokers.
Good ts185's are a little thin on the ground these days...

It will be for an accident re-enactment program hence the specific request. Somebodys got to make money out of other peoples misfortune.

Gaaaaaaay. Monopolizing on peoples misfortunes kinda blows.

If it was reenacting an accident of mine, I'd rather they use a bike that looks similar but is much cheaper, and actually blow it up with a bomb in the reenactment

The friendly chaps down at the local mosque will be happy to help with that.

90's - 2000's models would be fine

We arent recreating an accident... the show is about people wrongly convicted and later exonerated. We film
recreations of what happened from both perspectives, the police and the innocent.

The details re the specific bike are pretty important to this story.
