Vehicle Information
Yamaha CT2 175 Motorcycle - Dual-Sport (1972)
The 1972 Yamaha CT2 175 was a highly regarded trail and enduro motorcycle, known for its versatility and robust two-stroke engine. This model featured a 171cc single-cylinder engine, commonly referred to as a 175cc, delivering 16 horsepower at 7,000 rpm. A significant innovation for the 1972 CT2 was the introduction of Yamaha's "Torque Induction" system, a reed-valve induction motor designed to provide smoother power delivery and improved efficiency. The CT2 was a specific iteration within Yamaha's evolving CT series, following the CT1C and preceding the CT3. For the 1972 model year, the CT2 Enduro 175 was offered as a single model, without distinct trim levels like "Deluxe" or "Sport." The primary generational advancement for this year was the aforementioned "Torque Induction" engine, marking a notable improvement in engine technology for the series. Frequently Asked Questions:

Maintenance
| Component | Interval | Details |
| Gearbox Oil | 5 000 to 10 000 km, 100 hours, or annually | The CT2 175 uses an Autolube system for the two-stroke engine oil, which does not have a traditional filter. The gearbox oil lubricates the transmission and requires regular changes. Check Autolube oil tank level before each ride. |
| Belt | Not applicable | The 1972 Yamaha CT2 175 uses a chain drive for its final transmission, not a belt. |
| Drive Chain | Regular inspection | Inspect for tension, alignment, and lubrication. For off-road use, cleaning and lubrication may be required weekly; for street use, every two to three weeks. |
| Spark Plug | 3 000 to 5 000 km | Inspect regularly for soot, oil, or damage, and check the gap. Recommended spark plug: B8ES. |
| Air Filter | 400 to 800 km or monthly | The foam air filter element should be cleaned and re-oiled. Daily cleaning and oiling may be necessary in extremely dusty or hard usage conditions. |
| Coolant | Not applicable | The 1972 Yamaha CT2 175 is an air-cooled motorcycle and does not use coolant. |
Maintenance intervals are based on general recommendations for similar vintage motorcycles. Always consult the original owner's manual for the most accurate and specific schedule for your 1972 Yamaha CT2 175.
