Yamaha Other description

Nice 1974 TY 175. Starts easily, pulls strongly through all 6 gears, runs and stops just the way it should.
 
New controls ( levers, bars, and throttle); it also comes with a reproduction TY175 seat cover that is uninstalled. Sammy Miller aftermarket footpeg kit makes for a more secure grip on the pegs.

Motor has some top end ticking noise that is louder when first starting the bike, but recedes when things are warmed up.
The tank is in good condition; one small depression on the side, and some paint fading from knee rub.

Overall, a very solid TY175; just ridden at the Hollister Ahrma National earlier this month. 
These TY's are getting harder to find...  Sold with a Bill of Sale.

Local pickup is fine; shipping arrangements to be made and paid for by purchaser.  Thanks for looking!

NO IT'S NOT an illusion: you're looking at the 1981 Yamaha OW53, ridden by double World Champion Barry Sheene in the first three rounds of the '81 500GP championship. The bike's owner, aircraft engineering entrepreneur Chris Wilson, has lent the £100,000 GP machine to Visordown for our stand at this year's NEC Motorcycle Show - 27th November to 6th December 2009. Sheene raced the bike in the 1981 championship, where he finished fourth at Salzburgring, sixth at Hockenheim and third at Monza.
