The rest of RADs stock is also mouth-watering…that 998R…

No affliaition, and not my vibe. But seems like a good buy with 10k km on and FSH

Good buy yeah…just need to decide my appetite for garage-time

Damn…may have blown a portion of my budget today🤣🤣🤣that smile though👍 The PW has been well cared for and alot of work done, so I couldn’t resist

Ja I figured the smoking was more likely mixture related, nothing to be too concerned about. Put together a little “worst case” shopping cart for the 175…not too bad, considering what I spend on my 990😂 It’s a shame the front light is AWOL as I love that classic round light at the front

Got a video of the two bikes yesterday…will post them here with the hope that all the clever people here can provide ne with pointers when I go have a look this coming week. Firstly, despite the assurance that the 175 is a cold start the smoke coming off the engine prior to the starting attempt...

@JIMMI you are most definitely right about that…the pictures are so kak also, makes it difficult to see everything. Understandable that so many of the bikes from the 80’s got neglected, but I am hoping that 175 looks OK because it would be nice to bring something like that back to its former...

Such valuable info thanx👍👍will have a look and scutinise the bikes in person,focussing on the unrestored bike. My thought is if he is up for negotiating more to get rid of both, I can gain value on the nicer bike. Got a list of engine number codes/VINs to cross reference models etc. Do the...

That’s the one…will have to go take a look. Thank you for the heads-up, like I say, have no knowledge of these bikes. For the money even a bastarised one will do as a tool…that 175 (if the photos are to be believed) would make a nice restoration project

Bit far. Let me see what I can drum up locally…thank you for posting the pics. That KDX would make a lekker project. If I don’t manage down here, I will contact you👍

Where are you based? The pick of the bunch, air-cooled KDX.

Definitely leaning towards the IT. Will be going to have a look this weekend. Both apparently running well. The 200 is complete except for a speedo and a few small bits that are easy to source. Majority of the cosmetic plastic parts have been refurbished already and look good on the pics. The...

Thanx for the heads-up, but I must admit…I am partial to the look of the IT and KDX…would like to use it to do funduros if possible, just to play around and keep fit and practice. @AfricaOffroad please post when available, I would be interested

Prices of these vintage bikes are getting hard to judge, all over the place. What is an acceptable price for these bikes? Lets assume a complete runner that doesn’t need massive amounts of work, but not a nice restored one like yours (beautiful btw👍)

I have heard parts can be an issue…are there any interchangeable parts with the Blaster 200? The KDX is also more “modern” I guess…

I’ll just add this to make the thread colourful

Asking for some advice from those who know these bikes… I have been looking around for a “light” 2-stroke project. Want a bike that runs well, that I can play around on without spending a fortune to keep running. Doesn’t need to be perfect or a garage queen. Just needs to be a weekend toy that...

Nicely done👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
