    Remember some years you could get a CB in 125, 175, 200, 350, 360, 400, 450, 500, 550, and 750. Well maybe one or two sizes not a certain year. You could get a 350 twin or four. Good old days and great metal flakes.

    I can see how Honda was giving triumph a run for it's money. It's got the look of a triumph Bonneville but with and awesome paint job and badging.

    I used to have a 1974 Honda cb200. I've always wondered how these 175s compared to the slightly larger 200

      I've not ridden a CB200 but now own a 1972 CB175k6. Very different to my two Goldwings (a 2018 and a 1976) but brilliant fun to hack around on. I bought it from my local bike shop but it was actually a private sale from one of the mechanics there. He knows both the CB200 and CB175 very well and says that the 175 is the better of the two in his opinion. On paper the 175 actually has slightly more HP but I think probably a bit less torque. The CB200 had a cable operated front disc brake whereas the 175 had a drum. I'm told the the disc on the CB200 wasn't great. I'm in the UK so talking about UK spec bikes. Anyway the answer to "which bike is best?" is always subjective and a matter of opinion. All I know is that I love my little 175. It puts a huge grin on my face every time I go out to play on it.

    Btw Honda 175 engines have 150 psi compression not 135 psi. At 135 psi the engine is tired needs top end work
