Paid Drewpy thanks.

Haha good one Merv

Good game, good game as ol' Brucie would say

No not in the true sense of the term 'restored' Dave, i'm the the one and only owner, I rode it for years through the winters and in more recent times started to look after it, a true restored one would have all the zinc and green nuts and bolts etc, personally I prefer stainless and I'm happy with something that looks good for it's age rather than something that looks straight from the showroom.

Haha, its a 175, youre probably looking at how much oil it holds. Check the cylinder it may say 171cc at the bottom on the casting

I have bought lots of things from ebay and generally found it a good experience. Look at the sellers 'feedback' you can see if they have lots of negative feedback but bear in mind some buyers will leave neg feedback instead of trying to sort out problems. And you can ask the seller about things before bidding if you are not sure, dont bid unless the seller has said they will post to sri lanka, what part are you wanting?

2A7 is a DT175E a bit like mine (DT175MX)

Any quality 2 stroke oil will do Chris.

feelin the Kev see you on toy run

kinell mozzy didnt you used to frequent these parts. Alex lives in Oz, Pete has left the forum, we dont see much of Baz and yamahead graces us with his presence every now and then ...Paul

welcome Mike, I wouldnt spend ANY money until you have the proper registration docs sorted. or you may still have a field bike, allbeit a good one. Anyway it might be stolen for all you know then you will have nothing.

ok then perhaps I am wrong, let us know how it is then.

Yes it is Paul and I doubt you will notice the difference.

it will be sucking air in, you would be lookinf for (or should I say lstening for) a marked change in engine speed / sound when it is racing spray the inlet boot, the cylinder base gasket, the cylinder head gasket and lastly spray the left hand crank seal (through the slots on the flywheel) with clever use of the choke you should be able to keep the bike running while you do this

He means push the choke in to turn the choke off. as in push off...i think it says that on the choke knob.

Well you may have heard the saying, but I would love to be paid in washers Washer

Hmmmph and you bought your son a moped, perhaps she will take to keeping the ped clean with it

0.00912408759 pence a day Even better than you thought.

Here you are John see the link My link

Not really restricted John, it's more in a mild state of tune. however there may be a small tube in the neck of the standard exhaust the will reduce the diameter. This can be removed, I will put up some pics later for you

Welcome John is it a DT175E monoshock bike?

Hey Head_hunter, that is one of the best intro's I have read on this forum, welcome to the forum and welcome to biking, I too enjoy riding to and from work and i've been doing it 30 odd years. Perfect choice of bike too ...Paul
