Title: '88 DT175U.
Post by: Nathan S on July 07, 2010, 11:21:52 am

1988 DT175 - one of the black and red ones.
Clean bike, in need of engine rebuild (new rod kit & engine bearings supplied). It was tired but running fine when it was pulled apart - not blown up! Realistically needs a few hours and a piston kit/rebore to be a very good bike. The ones in road-rego'able condition seem to be getting $1200+ on Epay, with used engines.

Bike is 100% complete, so stuff like the exhaust and side covers ARE included!

Things in packets at top are the new intake boot and clamp.

Already has new: air filter, intake manifold, O-ring chain, sprockets, grips, tail-light lens and clutch cable.
Freshly recovered seat:

Good universal tyres. Includes all road gear (had been intending to road register).

Non-welded gear lever and shaft included.

Have about three-quarters of another bike for parts, including wheels with knobby tyres (front tyre is good, rear is OK).

I'll let you know - but don't hold your breath. Its been with me since 1997 and is a bloody good bike relative to what I'd get if i was to sell it.

DT is sold, BTW.
