This
is a 1974 Honda XR75 in very good condition. Everything is there. Even the
metal side number plates. The bike has been repainted and new stickers added
to the gas tank and side plates. The seat has been recovered and looks new.
The front plastic number plate and number are new. The petcock and gas cap
are NOS Honda parts to make sure the tank is in great shape. I think the
tires are probably original with good tread but there is cracking in them.
Front rim has some surface rust and the rear is in good shape. New Oury
grips on the handlebars.
The
bike starts first kick and runs very well. You can see this in the video
I included below. Has good power and shifts easily through all the gears.
Clutch is in good shape. Brakes are in good shape and stop the bike easily.
The bike has less than 3 or 4 months on a new piston, rings and cylinder
rebore. So, compression is better than factory new. Other than that I don't
know much more about the motor. It's a little noisy but I think there is
a little exhaust leak where the exhaust pipe is bolted on. There is a quick
change oil unit installed on the motor that is not original. But, it sures
makes changing the oil easy. It's just a little brass piece installed where
the oil filler plug goes. Motor does not leak any oil on the garage floor.
This bike sure is fun to drive and will pull me (190lbs) around just fine.
Please
be sure to view the pictures below. You'll need to click on the thumbnails
to view the larger pictures. They are about 100k each and may take a minute
to download if you have a slow connection but they are worth the wait. Also,
I've included a Windows Media Player Video of the bike starting and running.
Most folks have Windows Media so they can just download it and play it.
I put it at a lower quality for size sake so it's about 360k. It has sound
so you can hear the little beast rev up. If you want a higher quality 1mb
size video please email me.
As
you can see the bike is in very good shape for being about 29 years old.
I can't imagine a bike this nice being ridden that much. The tank is not
dented, the side plates are not dented and the handlebars and fenders aren't
scrapped. This one truly survived very well.
This
bike is offered without warranty or guarantee. I don't know if there is
something that may happen 10 days down the road or 10 years down the road.
However, you can see for yourself how good a shape this bike is in. Thankfully,
it's a Honda and very reliable and easy to fix when you do service it down
the road. This motorcycle is not perfect or mint and is not going to perform
like one of the new motocross bikes or high end dirt bikes. It is a Vintage
Honda and will provide a lot of fun and memories as you ride it on the trails
or around your house.
