YAMAHA AG175 (1982-1983) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Yamaha ZG175 was a farm motorcycle manufactured by Yamaha in the 1970s and continued production until the 1990s. The bike was based on the Yamaha CT3 and received minor modifications during production. It was placed between the AG100 and AG200 models.

The AG175 was powered by a 175cc single-cylinder engine with an auto lube system and was equipped with suitable features for agriculture use, such as a front and rear rack, an enclosed chain drive, and several other fittings.

In the visual department, the bike had installed standard features, such as a round headlight, a high-mounted front plastic fender, a single seat, a high-mounted single exhaust system, and wire-spoke wheels with off-road tires.

In the suspension department, the bike packed a telescopic fork on the front and dual-side-mounted shock absorbers on the rear, delivering optimum suspension performance and handling.

As for the braking power, the motorcycle's wire-spoke wheels were fitted with a drum braking unit on both front and rear wheels, offering the stopping force needed.

The 1982 Yamaha AG175 had installed a 171cc two-stroke single-cylinder air-cooled engine fed by a Mikuni carburetor, delivering 14 hp with maximum strength at 6,500 rpm.

The bike's engine was bolted to a five-speed manual transmission with a wet multi-plate clutch, sending the power to the rear wheel through a final chain drive.
