| | The '''Honda CL77''' was a [[Four stroke|4-stroke]] 360[[cc]] motorcycle built by [[Honda]] between 1969 and 1973. 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 CL77 Scrambler 305 was a close relative of the [[Honda C77|Honda C77 Dream]] and the [[Honda CB77|Honda BB77 Super Hawk]] of the 1960s. Scramblers, designated CL by Honda, differed from the sport bikes (designated CB) to allow for some off-road riding. The CL77 differed from the [[Honda CB77|CB77 Super Hawk]] in a number of ways. To increase ground clearance, it had the upswept exhaust pipes running along the bike's left side. It eliminated the electric starter. It had a small-capacity fuel tank, The fuel tank had a rubber knee pad, fork boots, 19-inch front wheel, coarser-tread tires (called universals), a taller handlebar, and abbreviated fenders. |
