Honda CB175

Honda CB175

High revving with a hard charging nature of the engine producing 20 bhp (15 kW), this was a beefier version of the CD175 but with twin carburetors and wilder cams. This bike was made keeping single purpose in mind i.e. excess of fun and performance combined with excellent styling. Top speed was increased to 85 mph (136km/h) with better acceleration compared to 80 mph(128 km/h) of CD175. But all of this came with a price as exhaust valves gave in early and engine had a relatively shorter life.Bike came fitted with a rev meter, round stretched out indicators, flatter handle bars, Honda logo on fuel tank and an Electric Starter. This bike was in production from 1969 to [[1975.
