 AnonymousThanks for that Bollocks, they have a weak gear box me mate tells me and they tend to do the odd cog or two in, so he is always looking for spare gear box parts. Cheers Mick. March 18, 2010 at 5:10 am #173631I would just about kill for an old grey XR75 if anyone sees a reasonable one.

They wont part with it though, other wise it would already be in MY shed :laugh: Always wanted one with a Pasani power pipe when I was a kid but the Old Man hated bikes. March 18, 2010 at 9:18 am #173636I had one Mick, pisses me orf that we got rid of it for about $200. It was a good bike. 
 In the same condition we sold it for it would now be worth $4K+ :angry:March 18, 2010 at 9:23 am #173673WikdBeemer wrote: Quote:I had one Mick, pisses me orf that we got rid of it for about $200. It was a good bike.

  Old morris M 8 …in perfect going condition  
  Holden Torana…sexy beast  
  Sorry its a bit lame….but soon i will find more 2 wheeled beasts waiting to be found :cheer: 
 Bol :woohoo:August 31, 2010 at 12:58 am #156488The Tamworth Old bulls drive past this blokes place every time we head up to Nundle State forest for a ride.He is a horse breaker and is allways on the side of the ride playing with his horses.I have know him for years and we allways wave to him when we drive past.He never knows its me and i often think that he was of the opinion that he didn’t like motorbikes.How wrong i was,farmers sheds…THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE     Bol :woohoo: November 4, 2010 at 4:54 am #156489Found another one today. :cheer: 
 Cool little bike.Didn’t have time to have a good look and Mrs farmer had no bloody idea about it.Just said her hubby hoons around the farm on it. 
 I’m sure all you legend bike boffins would know all about it.Bol :woohoo:  November 4, 2010 at 5:04 am #190150 November 4, 2010 at 5:04 am #190150I would suggest that it is a TY175 as a guess. November 4, 2010 at 5:28 am #190151Certainly looks like one. 
 The rear guard is not standard and the seat has been recovered but the paint work on the tank is standard for that model 
 They were a good bike, lite and easy to ride.
 Would make a good farm bike so i can understand why it’s still in use.
 We used a couple of ty250s and RL250s on our farm to chase cattle. :side:Rebore November 4, 2010 at 8:57 am #190156I am also guessing that the whipper snipper/brush cutter is a Sthil.  November 4, 2010 at 10:04 pm #190152 November 4, 2010 at 10:04 pm #190152Yeh! 
 It could be a stihl but it looks like an aftermarket handle on it 😆November 4, 2010 at 10:07 pm #190184rebore450 wrote: Quote:Yeh!

 Personally the whole “working in the garden thing” reeks of effort and interfers with riding time November 4, 2010 at 10:28 pm #190186 November 4, 2010 at 10:28 pm #190186rebore450 wrote: Quote:I bow to a greater knowledge of whipper snippers / brushcutters 
 Personally the whole “working in the garden thing” reeks of effort and interfers with riding time I am with you rebore. Normally if I can smell 2 stroke fumes I am having a good time. Not so with the whipper snipper :S
