Thanks for the photo's Gene. It's not every day we see the SR's.

I would not be surprised if the chain guard was from the factory for the smaller bikes. Probably did not want to see a kid get caught up in the chain.

Let us know how the resto goes.

Chain guard looks like the one on my SR175

Hi Gene,
Just a note from Mike Anderson. My SR100 looks to never have had a chain guard. It is original as raced and I cannot find any evidence of a guard. Also if you need a seat cover, I had two made when I had the seat for mine recovered. I assume they are the same, it looks just like mine. I cannot tell from your picture if the cover has any damage. Let me know if I can be of any help.

Gene, there is an old photo in the gallery of a SR100 from back in the day. It has who I believe is "Richards" father on it?

?

The bike appears all original and has a chain guard on it, so I assume yours is original also.

Nice find, all of the SR's are currently bringing a bundle of $$$$$

Looking good!

Mike Anderson · « **Reply #17 on:** May 02, 2012, 05:45:29 AM »

Yes, my seat has the Bridgestone logo on the back. I also believe the sales literature you saw for the sr100 has a sr90 in the photo. Look closely at it's carb area. I have the same literature.
Thanks Mike

Hi Gene, All the SR100 literature I've seen actually pictures an SR90. The SR90 was a souped up version of the 90 non oil injected motor, so it uses all the same external components. Air cleaner assy was for SR90. SR100 is all its own. Brake pedal appears modified. Chain guard is for SR90, not 100. But you can add it, they were available at the dealer-so was the air cleaner and pipe , etc. if you wanted to make your own racer. Great find . Mark.

Sorry, Richard should have your footrest return springs, etc. if you havn't already located them. mark.
