Suzuki 2 Strokes

I just picked up a 1975 yamaha 175 enduro. It's a true 1 owner bike that had less than 1700 miles & looked nearly new. Brought it home & added air to the tires. Pushed it outside and popped the clutch. After a 18 year rest she fired up & ran pretty well, but only with the choke on. I didn't go to sleep that night from 6pm till midnight I cleaned it very well. At 12 I removed the gas tank and cleaned the rust out. Next was to take what felt like half the bike apart to reach the carb & cleaned everything just as Super Dave tought me. Put it all back together & went inside for a shower. About 530 am I was dressed & ready as she said your out of bed early. I just kind of grinned as I walked outside & put gas in the bike. Off to breakfast I went on the 4th of july for grub. After breakfast I put about 45 miles on the little enduro before making it home. Since then I've put about 200 more miles on it to work and back with a few times on some trails & hill climbs. Seams I found great bike for about everythinmg.
Waiting for next years Deals Gap, i'd like to go on a cades cove ride & thru the dragon on it.

Nice one! Be sure to take Parson's Branch trail that connects Cades Cove to the Dragon.

those tires might be a bit too much off road to ride the dragon with.
maybee its time for a new set of mixed use tires?
sweet find by the way ,love those 175s more than the 250s
cheers mark

If only that beautiful tank and that LH sidecover had gone with the earlier exposed exhaust. That would have been a bike for the ages. The left side of the bike is a 9.2 and the right side is a 6.5.
