SUMMARY
State of the art, lightweight, trials /fun bike from the late seventies.
DESCRIPTION
Yamaha felt the need to get involved in the 'Trials' market so they approached European champion, Mick Andrews and in 1973, Mick signed to ride and develop a bike for Yamaha. During this time, he also designed the TY80 and TY175 models on which so many top riders had their first taste of trials riding. The TY range was first released in 1974 and continued to be developed until 1996.
This Yamaha TY175 has been painstakingly rebuilt to a very high standard and has never seen mud since. The tyres still have the new rubber spikes attached and the bashguard hasn't yet ground any rocks. The bike has some sensible parts from Sammy Miller products otherwise is completely standard. The vendor had the bike in his hallway bringing back memories of the popular 1980s TV show 'Kickstart' when talented riders would attempt to ride around, over or under anything. Its now on offer and ready to show, learn on, or compete in the popular twin-shock trials championships available.
