Suzuki PE175 Dirt Bike (1978-1984)

The Suzuki PE175, part of the "Pure Enduro" series, was an off-road motorcycle produced from 1978 to 1984, designed to compete in the popular 175cc enduro class. It was based on Suzuki's successful RM series motocross bikes, incorporating many of their advancements into an enduro-specific package. Across its production run, the PE175 maintained a consistent 172 cc air-cooled, single-cylinder, two-stroke engine. A significant power increase occurred in 1980, boosting output to 26.5 hp from the initial 24 hp, thanks to a new cylinder, head, and redesigned exhaust system. A major technological update arrived in 1982 with the introduction of the Full Floater mono-shock rear suspension system and larger 38mm front forks, replacing the earlier 36mm units. Subsequent models in 1983 and 1984 featured altered gearing for easier riding and various cosmetic refinements. The PE175 did not have distinct "trims" but rather annual model year designations (e.g., PE175C, PE175N, PE175Z) that reflected these evolutionary changes. Q: Will this part fit my Suzuki PE175?
