• Honda's unburstable twin-cylinder commuter bike from the 1970s
• The CD175 gave many future enthusiasts their first taste of motorcycling
• Fitted with HM353 stamped exhaust and supplied with a current

The Honda Motor Company was founded by Soichiro Honda in 1937, initially producing piston rings for Toyota. They made their first motorcycle in 1949 and within 10 years had become the biggest producer of bikes in the world going on to manufacture over 400 million two-wheelers as well as millions of other power products from cars to lawnmowers. Mr Honda himself never liked two strokes so whilst the other Japanese manufacturers concentrated on them, Honda stuck to producing only four strokes until the mid-1970s. The CD175 was the workhorse of the Honda range in the seventies and gave a lot of future riders their first taste of motorcycling, its solid and robust design standing up to the abuse dished out by many learners.

This CD175 in Red will stir memories in many motorcyclists of a certain age with its economical twin-cylinder four-stroke OHC engine, solid pressed steel frame and deeply valanced mudguards. The bike has been restored keeping a good degree of originality including a pair of HM353 stamped exhaust. Used by the vendor last year, it comes supplied with a few old MOTs and a current V5C.
