looks like it has 71 DT1 headlight bracket and gauges and the guy had a taste for low gearing....see sprocket in rear.
are there new seat pans avail for these bikes? this one is in great shape.

Can some one look at these pics and ID the gauges?

I plan to go completely through this bike and give her a new life.

Replied by HouseofEnduro on topic picked up my new 74 DT360 and got a few surprises!

That speedometer face was used on all 1969-1971 125, 175, 250, and 360 Enduros; the tachometer face was used only on 1971 DT1 250.

Wheelie king gear before slow wheelie's popular? Tha'd probably stay lofted through 5th! Or maybe a large trials bike, or maybe had some outdoor lighting cable needing a trench. If you could, post a top speed w/that gear for grins! It's a nice bike whatever PO was into!

The PO of my DT400 was into hill climbing, so it too came with a Frisbee sized rear sprocket. I rather like it since I don't run mine down the road. I don't know what it tops out at, but I know it gets there quicker than any of my other bikes.

Looks like she will be great, I had my eye on it too, I'd imagine you got it under asking price since it had been lingering so long.

Quite a few US imports with those large rear sprockets turning up in the UK at the moment!

Must have been the thing to do back then as mine is a large diameter rear sprocket too ! Curious thing is it seems quite high geared in 1st and have to slip the clutch a lot if crawling along
