Must have been fun cruising that thing around! Would take all the courage in the world to drive it on the freeway now, unfortunately :( Appreciate you checking out the video and commenting!! Cheers!
Don't you wish they all started that easy? I envy you being out there on a country road. I haven't been on a bike in a few years but I've kept my license just in case.
It sure would be nice! Seems like this bike can sit and sit and just keeps on running! I love it. Nothing beats the calming affect of cruising open dirt roads, at least for me. During harvest it gets a bit crazy, otherwise it's just so calm and peaceful. Thanks Kevin - always look forward to your comments and truly appreciate them. Cheers! Derek
I know what you mean about being able to smell the exhaust. Every time I start it it's there and kind of smells like an old friend :) I bought the bike a few years ago near Salida, Colorado, so definitely could have been yours. How crazy would that be!
Brilliant little bike, great video, thanks!
I too had that exact bike...loved it.
That engine went into many bikes and one four wheeler over three decades. For good reason too, those things are bulletproof
Oh man, I had a '79 DT175 in the early 80's.
It was the smallest bike that was legal to ride on the freeway.
Great memories
Thanks for the video!

My first ever bike when I got my licence back in 86. Brings back memories when I saw your video especially at your farm area riding
Glad you enjoyed! Thank you!!
What a distinct sound. I had that bike and sure wish I had it yet.
It truly is such a distinct sound! I feel lucky to have it! such a fun little bike!

I took my motorcycle test on that same bike in the early 80s. I see a Co, license plate, could be my old bike. I can almost smell the exhaust.
