1965 Ossa 175 Sport Rare Road Bike Runs Mostly Restored on 2040-motos

Other Other description

1965 Ossa 175 Sport road bike, very rare not built very long and not many sold in the US. You can find out some history of the model (not this particular bike) by going to Motorcycle Classics website and searching for "Enigmatic 1967 OSSA 175 Sport", it has a good background and description of the bike's performance. Ossa World's VIN ID Chart provided the year model ID. Contrary to the Ebay listing we do not have a title, it was missing before we got the bike but there is no option for "no title".

Some info on this particular bike. We got this bike in a trade and it was in boxes and completely apart. The bodywork was primered and there were many parts missing. The engine was all together, we pulled the head and checked the piston and cylinder and it all looked in good shape so we put it back together. We slowly started building the bike back and finding what few parts we could. All the paint has been redone, the tank badges were ordered from Spain, the rims and hubs were powdercoated and laced with stainless spokes.The headlight is not original, it is a CEV unit from a Wards Riverside and the odometer only reads 2 miles which is definitely not original mileage. The taillight was also missing and has another CEV unit. That is how far it has been ridden since the rebuild. The lights are not wired up. The handlebars and grips are pretty close to stock but not an OEM part. Brand new tires. The exhaust was in really bad shape and needs to be redone, we cleaned it up as best we could and painted it with high-temp paint. The exhaust and fuel cap both need re-chromed and replacements can be found out of Spain. The forks have new seals and fluid. The seat has been recovered and re-foamed. The footpeg and kicker rubbers are missing. The side cover hold-down nuts are not original. The bike does start up and run and sounds great.
