Hi Randy,
Can you take the engine & frame numbers and send them on. I will add them to the SR-175 list we have going.
Also the SR-100 if you did not supply when the list was started.
Thanks .. ray

Hi Randy,
That SR-175 engine number you supplied I think is on the clutch cover - correct ?
The engine casing numbers are at the rear drive sprocket, right of it and stamped vertically. There should be 3 or 4 numbers. Example - 0186
Thanks .. ray

Ray,
Ray,
You are correct. I got the number from the bottom right, horizontally off the motors.
I will check tomorrow for the vertical number on the rear of the
bike.
Thanks

Mornin All,
Attached in pdf the updated SR listings. If anyone sees anything wrong please let me know and I will update it.
Hi Mike. I think you have an SR-100 to add ?
Thanks to all ... ray

Ray,
On my SR 175 you have an extra 1 in the motor number TA1 26201,
not TA1 126201.
Thank you for doing this.

Hey guys I'm looking for your help.
The 175 SR fuel tank I have has two creases in it.
Both creases are up by the triple tree end of the tank.
I tried the local Paintless Dent Repair service and he
told me the metal is to thick and the location is where
he can't get a tool in to press it out.
Anyone have a solution or suggestion?
I've tried locating another SR 175 tank and have
found they are few and far between. They are
not the same as a BS 60 Sport. The SR tank has
two fuel shutoff connections, not one.
I am willing to send it out to be repaired if anyone
knows a good company that removes creases.
Thanks for your suggestions and guidance.

randy i think richard has a new tank may be worth gettin jeff bar

Randy,
You might be able to just add another fuel port to a SR-100 style tank. A lot easier than taking bad creases out. Just a thought.

would you mind providing a few more pictures of the carb covers, I have 3 175 DT's and one will (one day) be a custom. I don't have enough good parts for three, so have been thinking about some sort of air ram carb cover...
it also looks like your pile of parts are a lot worse off than what I started with, good luck and bridgestone on!

In the "Pennsylvania 350 GTR" thread, Davis explains splitting a GTR tank by grinding the weld off the seams, then rewelding after repair. That should make it easy to get to the creases.
The SR175 tank is a Sport 60 tank with an added petcock. That shouldn't be too difficult to do. Tank bungs to weld on are available in just about any size, then just find a spare 60/90 petcock. However, I've been watching on ebay for a while, and even 60 sport tanks are few and far between.

Thanks Karl.

Mornin Hardy,
Attached pictures of the SR-175 carb covers. Hope they are of help ?
These were sand cast as the production volume was around 750 bikes in total.

Missed adding this pic

Hi ray,
Thanks for the pics, I was thinking of building the cases up to be something similar, but wasn't sure if I would make it air ram in reverse like these.

Hi Hardy,
Back in the 70's I stuck velocity air stacks into the carb cap rubbers. Removed the air filter box.
