    When I was 15 I owned that bike in that same color. The sound of that engine brings back a lot of memories. For a 175 it was pretty zippy. I think I had mine up to close to 75mph.

    Cool looking upswept exhaust on those old scramblers. It says, "Take me off road a little, I'm a scrambler!" Double leading shoe front brake! Trick.

    Nice vintage classic Honda, Jr. My Grandmaw, in the 70's, had a Honda ST-90 that was that same color.

    My first real bike was 1971 SL175 in gold. I always had issues with those dual carbs. Oh, and it was a heavy pig of a bike. I wanted a MX bike but this thing landed in my lap so I took it. Rode it to HS every day. I do wish I still had it though. Not sure about the gearing, but the SL was geared so short you maxed out at 50mph or so. That was a bummer because I could never get on the fwy without risking my life.

    The carbs need to be cleaned out. It's not idling one one cylinder. When you lift the seat and say the bike has "not been molested" it means that some idiot did not get his hands on this with his hack saw. I could never understand that. This bike will not do 85 m.p.h. I had one and I know. It struggles at 70 m.p.h.

      I had a 71 cl175 in burnt orange
      The NZ model had a chrome front guard and different exhaust guards
      Top speed claimed by the manufacturer was 81mph
      Best I could do was 77mph at a flying 1/4 lying flat on the tank
      Btw Burt Monroe had two bikes at the same event!

    You stated compression both cylinders at 125 psi that’s completely wrong and at your low elevation should easily be over 150 psi and for a bike with only 99 miles.
    Bike does not run perfect as it won’t even idle after the short ride. Seriously $2600 in service for a Mc with only 99 miles.
    Come on at least be honest in you videos. Btw not the first time your statements are at best half truth’s

    • @ocavant

      I'm going to agree with the $2600 buck service. That there is Ferrari dealer rates. LOL.

      I agree this should be on main channel, its 20 degrees dark and grey and shitty in ct, im in florida for 8 weeks every winter so its like a break in the action in the winter off season, so stay tuned when bike week starts in 6 days the content will be fresh and rapid fire for next 9 months straight! God willing
