The '''Honda CL125''' | The '''Honda CL125''' was a [[Four stroke|4-stroke]] built by [[Honda]] between 1960 and 1974 as photos suggest<ref>[http://www.bikepics.com/honda/cl125/ BikePics: Honda CL125]</ref> though 1967-1974 has often been used as the years of production. The CL designation indicated this model to be the "Scrambler" version which implied some off-road capability. (prior to actual dirt-bikes gaining popularity.) The CL series of bikes were actually street bikes with a higher rear fender, a braced handlebar, and a high-mount exhaust. The CL underwent a change from 2-cylinders to a single-cylinder model in 1970. | ||

The CL125A Scrambler 125 was sold from 1967 through 1969. The fenders and exhaust system were chrome. Even tough it was designated a "scrambler," it was too heavy to serve any real off-road duty. | |||
