Hi folks,

Anybody here with experience of KE175D's? I'm going to see one on Wednesday. I've owned many road bikes but this would be my first trailie... Anything in particular to look for - bearing in mind I want it to be road-legal too...

Cheers

Iain

how much is it going for?

Could be better off with something a bit more upto date. At least when you ding it you'd have better chances of finding the parts. Just my 2p Wink

Its on Ebay for £400 at the moment. I suspect it will go for a bit more though, as from the photos it looks ok. I'll see on Wednesday though - note the only close-up (clocks) looks scabby...

My mate bought a tax'd and MOT'd DT125R for £650. Plenty of parts available and ebay is swarming with DT spares.

Its ok if you ding the levers or even bend the handlebars but ur gonna be on a right hunt if you say, for instance, bend a fork leg or ruin a side casing. Thats what so good about DT's Smile

Just checked that ebay auction.... Tidy bike for its age! Thumbs Up

KE125 here...

wants around £400 for it.. Its done half the mileage too (not that mileage is anything to go by)

Thanks 'Element'. A bit out of my way though, unfortunately...
