Earlobe666 Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Hi everyone, I recently decided to have a look at a dusty old motorcycle in a relative's garage. Cleaned it up slightly, and realised it was a 1976 DT175C Enduro. Luckily, it's in really great condition with just over 14,000 km on the clock. No significant rust, just dusty, grimey and in need of some grease and oil! Fortunately we also dug out the original service manual too. It was in a similar condition to the bike, but readable. I love the classic look and feel of the bike, and despite a significant lack of mechanical experience, I've begun to resurrect this machine. I've seen many pictures of similar Enduros from the late 70's that have been restored, and (with the help of this forum) I'm hoping one day soon I can have mine up and running in a similar condition!
