North America's wide-open spaces are the perfect playground for off-road motorcycles and the importance of this leisure-orientated sector has long been recognised by European and Japanese manufacturers. Yamaha began contesting this market in the early 1960s, offering a range of two-stroke single-cylinder trail bikes and purpose-built moto-crossers as well as twin-cylinder 'street scramblers'. Introduced in the late 1960s, the CT175 trail bike was sold mainly in the USA, where this example originated.

Imported from Colorado, USA and first registered in the UK on 1st April 2017, this Yamaha CT175 was purchased by the current vendor in March 2018 and has not been run since then. Re-commissioning and the customary safety checks will be required before it returns to the road. The machine is offered with an expired MoT (2018); copies of Colorado registration documents; and a V5C Registration Certificate. It should be noted that a K&N-type filter has replaced the original air box.
