happy new year everyone!!

Does anyone have any photos of the 76 175 XC? I am looking for some details of the style of the exhaust pipe on the bike. Mainly, what does the muffler end look like. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

I had a 76 cross country 175 at on time and the pipe was like the 75-76 250 Enduro pipe with the chrome tip and large integral muffler cannister. Mike

This might help, I think this is a 1976 175 XC. There are a few photos at the bottom of the page.

LOL! Thanks Daniel, but your photos show everything but what I want to see; the end of the exhaust! I appreciate that you took the time to post them. Jl

No problem but check again. There is one showing the tail piece. It has the double outlet, non-chrome.

That 2 hole tip is what is shown in the 76 Cross Country chassis manual for the 125 and 175, so the one I had may have been changed at some point. It looks like the chrome tip would go right on the pipe. Mike
