Description

Original 1976 Yamaha DT175 that has been stored inside a work shop since 1982. I bought this from the original owner and have the original issue title to go with it, s shown in the photo. The title is not dated on the back and there is no price filled in. I brought this bike home, ut fresh gas in it, leaned the carburetor, ut in a battery I had lying around and it fired right up. It runs great, ut taps out at about 6500 rpm. I am assuming this is a jetting issue. I got this along with another bike and just do not have that much interest in it to spend the time to clean it up. The photos are as I got it; I have not even washed it. There are defects as with any 40 year old bike; the tires are dry and cracked (though they have been holding air for 40 years), ear signals have been removed, here is light rust on much of the chrome, he paint on the gauge faces is cracked and so on. The fuel tank has only light rust inside as it was stashed away with an empty tank. There are no dents in the tank and very minimal fading. This will be a great bike for someone willing give it a little TLC. I'm just not that guy. It is sold as is. I know bikes very well and own a similar vintage Yamaha myself, o I have described this one accurately. I will not ship it, ut will assist with loading it if you have it collected by a shipper.
