Honda promo leaflet April 1972

<< < (3/3)

OMG....that reminds me...somewhere in the loft I still have the full 1978( I think ) honda range poster .....with the CBX1000 on the front.

Dad was trying to get back into bikes, and wandering the local dealers trying to understand disc brakes, overhead cams, and things that weren't Triumphs...and I saw a CBX1000 .... That's the kind of thing that affects a 10 year old and pretty much ensured I was going to be a biker. I had to be dragged away, but got the brochures and poster before I left.

Was an interesting time. Dad managed to avoid buying an XS250 ( the dealer had a room full he couldn't shift at big discounts ) and ended up with a 3TA .... painted metallic green. It's since been restored and he still has it.

Now i know why i bought the 175 in 72 (and have one now)

Rob62:
Nice poster....those 175’s look great!

Great leaflet - good memories for me. I went for a CB175 in 71 as my first road bike and they had none in stock so bought a 250k3 (K4 in brochure) and kept that for a year before buying a CB500 in 72 - and have now got a 750k2! So all the bikes in the brochure have a relevance to me
