Description

This is a 1973 Yamaha CT 175 Enduro. It is NOT a museum piece. It IS an old bike in relatively really nice condition. I bought it with the intention of taking it to swap meets but found I just don't have the time to do the things it needs to be 100%. It starts and runs. but after sitting all winter it won't quite rev out all the way on top. I think a good carb cleaning and a new plug would certainly cure it. It has outstanding compression. shifts perfectly and clutch works great. Brakes both front and rear work excellently. It has. new points and condenser. chain and sprockets. tires ( about 50 miles on them ). new Fly vintage bars. forks seals. clutch and brake levers- oem. o what does it need??1) the previous owner put a pod filter on the inside of the air box and modified the box to do it. I Think I have a good used one I will include if I can find it2) when the previous owner put a new head lamp in it he disconnected a lot of wires and apparently they are not correctly plugged in because the lights don't work. the speedometer lights on the tachometer come on and flash when the signals are on3) It won't rev all the way on top. I think the carburetor will need cleaning and a new plug installed. 4) the speedo and tack don't work. A new speedo cable comes with it. I don't have a new tachometer cable. There is a small tear in the seat that can be seen in the picture. New Stuff!!!!It comes with the following BRAND NEW ITEMS that will be all you need to take care of any electrical problem!1) new battery ( already installed)2) COMPLETE NOS magneto ready to drop in3) complete new replica wiring harness4) NEW oem rectifier5) new speedometer cable6) new top half throttle cable7) NOS front brake light switch8) an extra skid plate- CHROME plated!!9) a new aftermarket high performance air box/filter assembly10) new chain and sprockets ( already installed )11) NOS left handlebar switch ( already installed )Overall I would rate this bike a 6 out of 10.
