    my 175 when i had it ran like a raped aped, passed my 200s up like it was standing still. It had an after market exhaust, oil injected no pre mix. The problem i had with it was, it would always go over back wards on me.

    guess I better dust mine off and take some pics.

    White bros pipe
    pro tec rear suspension
    durablue extended axle

    oh, and when I was running 22's on the back it would SMOKE my 86 200X, I changed to 18's and at trikefest on the muddy drag strip I lost to 200X man pretty bad. I would chalk it up to wheelspin though. It has a really hard powerband, and once it revs up its a pretty nasty little motor. Also, the auto clutch is certainly a handicap, but like I said I beat the snot out of my skinny little brother on the 200X so bad, and I was taunting him so much he got kinda upset!

    There was a YT175 with a DT175 motor in it on ebay a while back. The seller said it was a direct bolt in swap. I forgot to ask if the kicker cleared the rear wheel or not.

    I don't think it will, since the YT engine is practically part of the rear carrier. It doesn't look like it would clear the exhaust, either.

    edog, how many bolts on the dt175 head? I wonder if you could put the yt175 head or head and cylinder on the dt175 lower end and make it work?

    Yamaha lists the same base gasket P/N for the YT175 as the 77-81 DT125 and the 1981 DT175, so it should fit.
