Its up to you but I would leave the frame blue, then with gold rims and disc it looks like uber rare last of the PE175s.

since its air cooled i think its silly to keep the RM tank/radiator shrouds. You also might want to consider something like a DR200 tank or a yellow YZ tank or a custom made tank that uses the safety seat. An RM 465/500 tank also might work/look good.
Wanted - 1978 TS185 frame or frame&motor. Frame # TS1852-24007 up to TS1852-39022

Keep em coming,all good ideas.
Even though i like the original look,the minus side is rad shrouds are not needed although 2 extra sub fuel tanks would have been handy but i need to squeeze a pipe in there.
The fuel petcock sits very close to the head.

The PE tank is the most practical for the woods...10 lts i think and matches the RM black seat,but the tank is very close to the forks on full lock but an easy fix.
It looks tough and kinda PE ish......but looks like its had a few meatpies.

The N/T combo also works and looks like it'll give me the most room for a pipe.

Infact they would all work with minimal mods.....the pipe decides the fate!

Viper...hmm i'm a hopeless rider and would probably get in everyones way....but you never know!
This is what the PE175 should have been in 1985 Marc...well it should have been a 200 by then.

cheers....mario
