Honda CL description
1973 Honda CL175. Over the winter this motorcycle was disasembled and the following repairs or parts were replaced.
New battery, seat cover, piston rings and cylinders honed. Motor is still on original bore. Previous owner had stripped spark plug hole so "Time Serts" were installed in both spark plug holes while head was off. Carbs were cleaned and all needles, jets and springs replaced. New drive chain, front brake light switch, accelerator cables and exterior engine bolt kit. Now has hex bolts for all engine covers.
The gas tank was cleaned and sealed at local radiator shop. All dents were fixed and tank and side covers sprayed with Honda Ruby Red. New fuel petcock then installed.
While engine was at machine shop all valve seats and valves were recut. One new intake valve was installed at that time as prior owner had bent valve when trying unsucessfully to chase spark plug threads.
New rims and spokes have been installed. Wheels were trued by local motorcycle shop. Frame was cleaned, primed and painted.
Original owners manual is included as well as a clear title. Motorcyle was purchased from Johnnys Vintage Motorcycle February 2013.
Motorcycle has been ridden around the block since being put back together and everything works as it should. Could use new back brakes at some point.
Now for the bad, the exhaust is rusted and fork tubes are somewhat corroded. Most of the crome needs to be replaced if you want a show bike and engine needs to be polished or painted to be really nice. Also the side cover emblems are pretty faded and rough. The tank emblems look pretty nice but are not show quality.
This is not a perfect show bike yet but as you can see from the pictures will look nice in someone's collection.
Please ask any questions. Just ready to sell to clear up some room for next project. Buyer pick up only. Will work with your shipper.
