Honda CD175 - Having undergone a total "Nut and Bolt" restoration at a cost of over 4000 you can imagine the condition of this 1972 Honda CD175 Motorcycle. Wow!!
Starting off with a bike that only showed 4100 recorded miles that the restorer was assured by its owner was correct, he set out to turn what was a sad and forlorn motorbike into this totally immaculate bike you see here. Once stripped to component parts, the frame was powder coated. The wheels received the same treatment but with a special "chrome" powder coating and then rebuilt using stainless steel spokes giving a remarkable effect.
The engine and gear box unit was stripped and meticulously rebuilt using only genuine Honda parts. The cylinder block itself was stove enamelled complementing the overall appearance beautifully. Then over the next two years the bike was pieced back together applying the same very high standard throughout and now must be one of the best examples of this model in existence today. Described by the vendor as "A true Gem" we would have to agree.
