  • In this video, we do a walk around and short ride out of this 1972 Honda CB175 K6. With 27k miles on the clock, it's not perfect but it's still a lovely little bike and rides very well. This is definitely a simple project to ride and improve.

    I had the same version back in the 70's . Yes the original blue was sparkly candy blue it was very nice .. That one does sound like loose camchain but it's very easily replaced . Around 75 to 80 top speed but the headlight is only 35 watt and there's no voltage regulator so if you upgrade headlight it'll slowly drain the battery so don't ride for hours at night like I did . Great bikes . Cheers !

      It definitely had a rattle. Thanks for the information and feedback.

    I had the CB 250. Sounded just like that. The CB 175 was so much better looking than the CD, which was ridden by blokes who carried sandwiches and a flask in a gas mask satchel.

      This was a lovely bike, as are the 250s. We got to look around a 350/4 a few weeks ago and that was a joy.

    Lovely bikes, like you, I had one a long time ago. That is in great condition for its age.

      Yes, all considered, it was a nice thing for it's age. I would just ride it as it is, although there were a few things that could be tidied up. It was a pleasure to ride.

    Beautiful bike! I was hoping you'd give it the beans!

      So were we but we only had a chance to take it around the yard. It is a nice thing.

    Would you guys recommend it as a 1st bike for someone?

      @MotorcycleFettlers  Месяц назад

      I would as I love them but if you can't use spanners or don't know anyone who can then stay away as they are old now
