Pe 175

nice to see theres a few of these old girls in circulation.had 2 of around 20-25 yr ago.fun bike when they were running right.terrible brakes.cool rear suspension which actually worked reasonably well for the time.two springs on each rear shock was the circa version of low and high speed shock control.the small top spring provided a degree of comfort before the big mother took over.air preload on front forks.fondly remember jumping river floodbanks and endoing the landing!throttle stuck wide open and had to resort to ripping spark plug off with bare hands to kill it.good times!
 
This fella and his son still race them in our novice class! He has a bunch of vintage Suzuki's. Not often you see restored enduro bikes though. Felix has owned the PE 250 since new. It's unrestored.
