Reader Ride. Very Nice DT175 Restoration.

 Mike Stratton Sends in this beauty of a restoration. I especially appreciate the "before and after" style of the pics. Very nice resto. When I was a younger (and lighter) lad I seriously lusted after one of these.

My pleasure Mike. Brag away!

  2. Thanks for the compliment Spot! Ya we were ALL younger and lighter for sure! We had two of these great bikes when I was a kid. We couldn't hardly tear them up! Now to find a survivor and a title is getting pretty tough!
