'88 DT175U.
« 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).




(There's more, but this gives you an idea).

Am happy to take more/more detailed photos if there's anything you particularly want to see.
$450 or make me an offer.

In Yass, southern NSW. Maybe be able to deliver to Canberra/Wollongong/HEAVEN event/Rockley Vinduro.
04000 23847.

The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.

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.
