About the Honda XL175
Choose the correct early or later carburetor kit, then match gaskets and chassis parts.
Carburetor kits for early and later XL175 applications
PartsNMore lists one XL175 carburetor rebuild kit for 1973–1975 and a separate kit for 1976–1978. Confirm the model year and carburetor fitted before selecting the kit. Compare the supplied pieces with the repair you are planning, especially when a previous owner changed the carburetor.
Engine gaskets, fork seals and brake shoes
The featured engine gasket set lists XL175 1973–1978, while the fork oil seals list 1974–1978. Front and rear brake shoes have separate product listings. For chassis work, match the wheel position, hub or fork dimensions as well as the year; the carburetor-kit split does not define chassis fitment.

Later carburetor kit
The 1976–1978 XL175 carburetor rebuild kit is listed separately. A replacement carburetor needs its own identification and component check. For suspension service, the XL175 fork oil-seal set lists 1974–1978.
