Honda CB description

1972 Honda CB175 (2595 miles)

I bought the bike two years ago and did a basic tune up and rebuilt the carburetors. Since then, I rode it for a little bit around town and put some 200 miles. I do not use it that much, therefore I am selling it.
The bike is quite presentable and looks nice. I have kept it original and, since my ownership, there have not been any modifications.
Most of the work I have done to the bike is cosmetic, polishing the fenders, cleaning up parts and repainting others.
There are a few dents on the gas tank and a few scratches on the air filter covers, but nothing major that requires immediate attention.

This is a 40+ year old bike. Therefore, there are no warranties and the bike is sold ‘as-is’. Please, ask any questions before bidding.
Sensible offers will be considered.

Clear NC title.
Owner's manual and tools included

Team HRC’s Joan Barreda on the Honda CRF450 Rally, got off to a storming start in day one of the 2014 Dakar rally, clocking up the fastest time of all the 175 riders at the first time-check. The former Husqvarna rider who moved to Honda in the middle of the season inaugurated his 2014 Dakar with an acrobatic performance. The motorcycle competition was expected to be wide open, and that is indeed what the classification shows after the opening stage. It was a very early start for the Rally Dakar. The pack of riders headed off at four in the morning on a long 251 miles that took them towards the vibrant city of Rosario for the start of the 112 mile special.

Tue, 09 Mar 2010

SEE THE MACHINE that could propel Britain to a new motorcycle land speed world record at The Race Retro 2010 show, held at Stoneleigh Park, Coventry from 12th to 14th March. Almost a year has passed since Visordown broke the news of the planned UK assault on the land speed record - this coming August the Angelic Bulldog team travels to Bonneville, where it is hoping to smash the 400mph barrier and bring the motorcycle Land Speed Record back to the UK for the first time since 1937. The current record stands at 360.913mph over a kilometre.
