Hi
I am new to this site but I have a query,Has anyone any knowledge of a Suzuki "Birdy" I can find it on google but cannot find any Suzuki dealers who know about it.It is a step through model of 50cc Similar in design to all the other makes.All the suzuki models I have found are 2 strokes but this is an o.h.c.4 stroke it runs fine but the clutch was slipping and I couldnt get the parts so I had to get it relined.Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers big jenk

Re: suzuki stepthrough
Hi Big Jenk and welcome. It sounds like you might have quite a rare bike for English roads at least, though someone on here might know about them.
As far as I know the Birdy or the FB range replaced the two stroke FR Cutlass range in the early eighties, and I think it is still made today but not imported over here. Regarding parts and other info about the Birdy, I'm not sure about the best supplier and have even approached the VJMC about the Yamaha and Suzuki range of stepthroughs about this, as I'm a big fan of all stepthrough bikes. I suppose its worthwhile e-mailing as many former and present Suzuki dealers for info and have a look on auction sites such as ebay and see if anything comes up.
If I do find out any more I will let you know.

Hi Big Jenk, Welcome to c90 club! 
With luck someone may shed a light for you. Maybe post a similar request up in 'Other Marques' too?
Cheers!
