Cb175 K0?
kent400:
As Ash has said the 175 KO was essentially 160 with a slightly larger capacity, it did however have a 5th gear and a speedometer that incorporated a tachometer. I think it was only produced in 1968 and wasn't imported to the UK.
Probably most went to the USA and are popular there for the F160 racing series in view of the 5th gear.
Bore a CB160 + 40 and you have 175.

Yes ..I think you are correct Peter ..not available in the UK and pretty difficult to even get a decent image of one. Here's the best can come up with :)

Not sure that the 175K0 had a separate tacho though although the CB125 did.

This sloper is advertised as a 175 but appears to be 4 speed. Is this correct?

It's a CD175A sloper which is 4 speed (6v electrics, no electric start). A much loved model & one of my 1st bikes.
