Vehicle Detail

This 1978 Honda XR 75 is all original (except tires and plugs). I am the original owner of the bike. I rode it during the summers of 78 to 91, at that time I had to put it into storage until recently. Before storing it, all the gas was drained and the oil changed. When I took it out of storage last month, I added fresh fuel, drained and replaced the oil, checked the spark plug and I was off and riding. It started for me on the first kick. The tires are starting to show signs of dry-rot but they still hold air. There are sighs of wear and tear from normal use, but for its age it is in overall good condition. There are minor scratches on the tank and side panels, and the spark plug wire has had electrical tape on it since the mid 80's due to some minor cracking. The tip of the front brake lever is broken and the bottom skid plate has a few dents. There is minor seepage from the lower end, but does not leak. There is a repairable tear along the seam of the seat and a small dime size hole on the left rear. The bike has been ridden and trail tested, and runs great!!!! This would make a great vintage bike for any collector, riding enthusiast, or an easy father/son (daughter) restoration. This bike is gaining value all the time and harder and harder to find in it's original condition. Please call 989-345-1735 or e-mail through e-bay for any other information. I have the original owners manual to go with the sale. I am selling this bike AS IS, so please ask questions before bidding. I will be happy to send more pic's if requested. The seller is responsible for shipping or pick-up, (I will work with purchaser if shipping is needed) and a down payment of $100 must be made through pay-pal with-in 48 hours of end of auction and the remainder must be paid with-in 5 days of the auctions end. This bike is for sale locally so it could be withdrawn from e-bay at any time. Thanks for looking, and dont hesitate to e-mail with any questions.
