PROJECT HONDA CD175A (SLOPER)
Skoti:
Nice to see bread and butter Honda's restored as well.
Well done indeed.
Will you be looking out for the correct right hand side tank badge and maybe consider fitting a ribbed pattern front tyre for originality?
paul G:
I am awaiting the correct badges as they have 175 under the Honda logo, I have the correct ones that came with the bike but they have a small amount of pitting on them.
No choice of ribbed tyres for a 3x16inch very very limited choice.
Skoti:
Aye,
It's a bit of a challenge finding stuff for more obscure models but worth it in the end I believe.
I did wonder about the tyre size after posting that comment, it's easy to assume all those tyre sizes are still available as they used to be.
But even rear 19" tyres for my Commando are becoming difficult now as well.
Thanks for posting the photos.
Cheers
Skoti
BigAl (Alan):
Excellent job. Completed a CD175A restoration a number of years ago, but never sourced the original all plastic tank badges
Image attached of the my old original faded badges.
paul G:
Thanks Alan.
Yep all the succeeded part numbers have the 175 bit missing.
