Holic, need your help with YT 175 Pipe

[Dan Tenn]

I found this aftermarket pipe on ebay for a YT125, I was wondering if it looks like the one you have for yours. I doubt that they will be interchangeable, but I gotta try.

The FACTORY pipe will NOT interchange. That looks like the rusy pipe that was laying next to my YT175 when I picked it off the junk pile. I BELIEVE that the 175 frame is the same as the 125, only it is LONGER by possibly 1 or 2 inches. If the pipe I'm getting with my suspension kit fits the 175, I will be selling it, if it fits my 125, Im keeping it. Either way, I still have that rusted thing that I got with my 175, and it is bareley useable in its current condition, but could be fixed up, mabey duplicated. If, for any reason, the rear suspension kit will not work on the 175 (I think it was on a 125), I will modify to work, or build one that will, but I think the rear end dimensions and carrier are identical, so I dont see why it wouldnt fit. Possibly some hardware differences if any..
