theres like 15 pics now what the heck

"Uh Houston, we have a problem"

in your first post, you had URLs posted in the middle of Image tags. I tried to remove the URLS and may have killed a pic or two in the process, but it wasn't any 15

Also, all three pics have different file names.

I gave my OL a pair of those for her birthday a couple years ago. She learned to ride on one and the other was a parts beast.

Now she rides a 76 xl175, when I'm on my IT175

I have two MTDs like that. Can be tricky to mod. $20 isnt bad though, I got both of mine for $40 so same price as yours really.

Ah, comparative shopping. I'm working on that now as I sit at my desk.

The XL175 is street legal dual sport, and a first kick runner. The IT175 Is a yammy woods bike, 2 stroke , its an 81, but runs pretty good.

I've got a 71 CB750 Chopper too.

yea, mtd is my favorite. cheap. except for the ones with tecumseh, my dad had one with a tecumseh 12hp, ended up braking a connecting rod. no offense if anyone likes tecumseh, but i prefer briggs and stratton.

I agree, Tecumseh is junk. My Gen1 racer was a mid 90s MTD and it had a 12.5 OHV. Never ran right and now doesnt run at all.

if u look closely at tht picture of the side view to the right, you can see my 14.5 briggs and stratton engine tht was on my blue mower. now its a parts engine
