About this model
About the Hercules K 175
The Hercules K 175 is a classic Sachs two-stroke from the mid-1950s. The original K 175 was supplied around 1955–1957 with 175cc, four speeds and about 10hp; later S and SE versions are separate developments. Identify the correct version from engine and frame numbers, not the tank name alone.
Rebuild quality weighs heavily when buying. Check cylinder, piston, crank and gearbox condition, along with completeness of carburettor, exhaust and 6V system. A well documented original machine is usually a better investment than a cosmetically attractive motorcycle with unknown mechanics. Have questionable restoration work assessed by a classic two-stroke specialist.

Before you buy
What to check before buying
- Verify type plate, engine and frame numbers to distinguish K 175 from K 175 S/SE and conversion projects.
- Measure compression and inspect cylinder, piston, crank bearings and seals for noise, leaks and uneven hot running.
- Test four-speed gearbox, clutch, chain and sprockets under load for jumping gears and slip.
- Check carburettor, fuel tap, tank and correct 1:50 premix for contamination, leaks and stale-fuel damage.
- Inspect 6V ignition, charging, frame, wheels, drum brakes and exhaust for corrosion and incorrect restoration parts.
