Awesome. Must be a rocket ship !

[@ballockybill69]

I had the DT175MX as a youth, loved it, but always lusted after an IT.

[@Bikes_And_Biscuits]

Me too! IT175s weren't around much when I grew up. The IT175 must have seemed awesome in its day. It still handles really well now.

[@ballockybill69]

@@Bikes_And_Biscuits They're a race bike after all, the DT's were great fun , the IT must be even better. Never got to ride one , had a couple of YZ's.

I had the DT175MX in blue until two toe rags stole it in Chester and rode it to LLandudno before getting nabbed

[@Bikes_And_Biscuits]

Ah that's a shame. The Dt175 is great fun too ! Thanks for watching!

Nice bike, sounds pucka. We had a DT180 for racing about as 14/15yr olds in local woods and got shot at a few times with salt by local farmer then a brand new DT50 in 86 (about £800 then), Aged 17 in 1987 an RD 125 ex racer so bloody fast, then i rode an RD 250 dropped handlebars for a month or so illegally to get to work and back at Pinewood Studios when they were making Batman 1989. The good Ol' days. 🤣. Cheers, some memories came back there 👍👍

[@Bikes_And_Biscuits]

Love that! Getting shot at by the farmer. We had that a few times riding around the fields! Thanks for watching!

they did 465cc & 490cc versions that were fantastic machines, the new redesigned reeds block gave them huge amounts of low-down power, more than any other 2T engine back then, 250cc 400cc were also great machines, all the IT bikes were good,

[@Bikes_And_Biscuits]

Yes you are right. They are great engines! I'm thinking about buying a IT250 next. Do you know the best year/model to buy?
