Great job!!! At the age of 16, I bought a new 1972 red cb175 honda, that bike was bullet proof!! One strong motor!!!! I still miss my 175.!!!!! Thank you!!!
man! I wish Honda still makes this small displacement multi cylinder bikes can't deny a 360 parallel twin engine sounds better than a 1 cylinder job with a modern EFI setup it will make a lot more power and give an impressive 3 digit mpg figure
That was my very first bike. I'd love to own one again. Someday I will. I keep looking and finding stuff but nowhere close to where I live. I have a. blue 82 750 nighthawk with 6600 original miles on it. I'd trade my rig for yours and barter. Mine runs very strong and has all its life left in it.
Nice offer but i allready hava a black 82 Nighthawk 450 and a 84 Shadow 750 the cb175 is my collection bike i also have a 80 cb125s, a 78 xl125 and a 79 kawa kz1000 , good luck , the cb175 sound badass and is fun to ride.
one of hondas best engines, you can buy a replacement top-end kit, barrel piston gaskets that converts it to 205cc, you can also buy a replacement head with roller bearing rockers and bigger valves and bigger inlet/outlet ports, it uses the same exhaust and carb but the carb can be replaced with a bigger one instead of up jetting your old one, the barrels cost about £200 head about te same,
I had a 1971. It was blue, and the paint scheme and tank looked different, for some reason. It was my ticket to freedom as a kid, but boy, it was weak, and had a lot of mechanical problems. Except for the tank it looks the same.
Pulled one of these out of a relatives barn a couple weeks ago and they said it's mine; the bike has been sitting for a few years but I'm hoping to fix it up and travel south in the fall for a few months with a back pack. I weigh 160 pds and the luggage w helmet will probably weigh another 30 pds. Could this be worth pursuing? I've been searching for a bike to travel on for a year or so, and I have enough cash for the investment. Just not sure if it will be worth my time.
That sound like a good plan , just clean the carb and the tank good , replace fuel lines , inition points and condencer , and plate it , it is a very nice bike to drive and is simple , good luck with this make a video of your trip if you can , or try to exchange it for a bigger bike in great shape like a Shadow 750 or a old Gold wing for cheap but if you dont plan to go fast up a big hill stay with this bike if it run good , put 10w40 in and change it often , i'll go on a trip with my Shadow 750 in the Fall too , good luck
This was my first bike in 1974, was 17 years old went all over the country on it, never let me down
I just bought the CB175. Had a CB200 years ago. Mines not running but will soon be.

What’s not to like. This is beautiful bike👍👍👍👍
I own one just like this, I had one back in 1978 and traveled back and forth from London to various places in Germany on it, they go on for ever!
Hey nice to know, good story that is, thanks for commenting :)
Sounds like killer bee! I love the old Hondas!
its been a long time for me the last time i riden a bike i personally like the old cb series honda made i wished they would bring back that style.

You might like a Kawasaki 300 versys or 400Z. They are parallel twins.
Had the sl175 great bike on and off the road never got off except to work and sleep

Sounds Bad Ass. What mufflers are you using.
What's the top speed? There is one for sale in my area and just want to know if it at least goes 65-70
It rev pretty high at high speed but it can do it, maybe you can change the chain gear to go on the highway for a long run.
I dont cruise at more than 6000rpm its your choice to rev her to 9500rpm for cruising , its an antique bike man respect it :)
78 MPH with a tail wind. I was 16 and weighed 130 pounds. Loved that bike.
what is the top speed of this bike
CB125so 1:35
HONDA MOTOR CO LIMITED 1949.
dude you need to acjust that cam so we can see where you are going
Its a video about the bike not the road so I adjust the cam to see the handlebar an clutch lever , throttle ...
What? Seriously? OMG
low-rpm shifting... :/
