SUMMARY

A lovely example of Honda’s classic miniature sports bike, with its revvy twin cam engine, sharp handling and decent brakes. Renowned for being quick little lightweights, they remain very popular machines.

DESCRIPTION

  • Introduced in 1969, the CB175 was a real eye opener to those who’d been used to a stodgy diet of British bikes, as they came with great performance from their 174cc twin-cam engines, with a red-line of 10,500rpm
  • Praised for their revvy engines and great handling and benefitting from 12 volt electrics and a starter button
  • Recent service, full-rewire and new regulator/rectifier, battery & seat cover
  • A clean, running, correct numbers machine from a large collection of bikes, which may need some light recommissioning before returning to the road
  • Current V5C and a folder of receipts/invoices
