1976 Honda XL 175

XL175-4001871

Clear

Yes the miles are correct. Tires , sprockets, chain , brakes , all show no wear. Original tires on bike . Have odometer verification on titles.I bought the bike from the previous owner ,a Pennsylvanian, in August 1998 with the current miles. He bought it from the prior owner in June 1992 with 115 miles . I have a copy of the Penn. title . The bike has a clear Fla. title in my name and my possession, now.. I added the bike to my own collection , in a climate controled building , and have never heard it run. So the new owner will need to do whatever it takes to get it running. It is being sold as is, with one exception, I am including a new OEM Blue Gas Tank, that I ordered from Honda and is still in the box. I will post a picture of the Tank before the close of bidding. It is exactly like the tank on the bike, including decals. The tank on the bike looks fine on the outside , but has had a treatment for rust on the inside. So in exchange for the closing bid, the new owner gets the bike with the tank you see in the picture and a new tank. It comes with the tool kit, owners manual , set up instructions for a 1977 XL -175 , but no battery. I will post pictures of these items. The XL 175 was make from 1973 -1978 , although 1976- 1978 are most similar. The 73-75 XL-175 Honda Product Code is 362 and for 76-78 is 391. I have many OEM new parts still in the sealed Honda wrappings for the bike which I will offer first right of refusal to be purchased by the new owner at the price I paid . Whatever the new owner does not want to buy from the parts will be listed on ebay. The parts are too numerous to list here, but inquiries from Serious bidders are welcome. The parts do include a OEM Tachometer addition "kit". Note that the 362 instrument cluster had a spedo/tach combo, but the 391 only had a speedo. I have bought all the parts individually to make the conversion. So to recap, the extra parts including tach kit do not automatically come with the bike for the closing bid. But the new owner has the first option to purchase them individually,except all the parts needed to do the tach conversion need to be purchased together . I cannot guarantee that the conversion will work but believe it will based on a detailed investigation .I will discuss with serious bidders. Cosmetically the bike looks great. It has been stored out of the weather .No rips or cuts in the seat. The XL175 is alot more bike than a SL or XL 125 from the same era. Engine is a reliable single cylinder SOHC two valve, 5 speed transmission. Kick start. Serious Bidders,please be proactive and email me with your questions, comments and concerns. I have attempted to give a detailed overview of the bike but probably have left something out.On May-03-13 at 11:59:15 PDT, seller added the following information: I have updated the pictures. The additional first two are the battery box which is behind the left side cover. Note there is no battery acid damage. The third picture is the the tool kit holder with strap and air cleaner door , all behind the right side cover. Note that the fuse holder with three fuses is still in place. The four picture is the New OEM Gas Tank and Conventional Gas Cap. The Tank is sitting on top of the Box with packing that it came in from Honda . The fifth picture is a Factory Shop manual with Honda Binder, set up instructions, extra owners manual . The sixth picture shows the original side covers als seen on the bike and I am including an extra new OEM right cover ( no extra charge ) , a new OEM battery strap and battery cover ( both still in the wrapper) The seventh picture is a close up of the fender meant to show a few small superfical shallow scratches on the front fender.
