F/S: 1972 Honda 175 Cafe moto (L.A.)

Hi all,

I know this is a Moped forum, but I also know that many of you ride motorcycles too. I thought I would post a for sale ad for my 1972 Honda 175 cafe styled bike.

It was originally a CL, but I have had a lot of work done on it since I first bought it almost two years ago. The bike is in really great shape, beyond the occasional tweeks that are needed for any bike from the 70s. It has new tires, new seat, new exhaust wrap, and new petcock gaskets. The handlebars, down pipes, battery and plugs are also pretty new. The carbs have been jetted, the voltage regulator replaced, and it has new fuel lines and filters.

Most of the mechanical work was done at Garage Company (formally in Venice, but now in Hyde Park), and all the aesthetic stuff was done at Lossa Engineering (Long Beach). The down pipes were fabricated at Illuminate (Silver Lake).

Anyway, it s a good little bike for anyone who is into small engine Hondas. It is small, but if you are under six feet (I'm six-one) it should fit nicely. Post if you are interested and I will send you an e-mail. Thanks.

I want this sooo bad, why do you have to live so effin' far from me!?!

Re: F/S: 1972 Honda 175 Cafe moto (L.A.)

Hi Jason,

Do you work, teach or study at U of Memphis? Just wondering. I'm going to be applying to school there. Peace.

No joke?! I work and study. I work in the machine shop and I'm studying Civil Engineering. What's your area of study and when are you applying? Dude, if you end up attending UofM you should totally bring that hot bike so I can buy it from you.

Re: F/S: 1972 Honda 175 Cafe moto (L.A.)

Yeah, I am applying to the Philosophy program. It is tough to get into though. I am applying this fall and would start in August 2011 if accepted.

Re: F/S: 1972 Honda 175 Cafe moto (L.A.)

Jason Jason Bobason /

Awesome, I have a friend who just graduated from the philosophy program. I'll be graduating that May, but if you end up out this way and need anything or want to hang and ride, hit me up.

Re: F/S: 1972 Honda 175 Cafe moto (L.A.)

Cool. (Bump)

Re: F/S: 1972 Honda 175 Cafe moto (L.A.)

Beautiful bike. How much are you selling it for (not that I can afford it)?

Cool that you are doing Philosophy. I have multiple degrees in it ... LOL ... I'm poor, but relatively happy.

Re: F/S: 1972 Honda 175 Cafe moto (L.A.)

Sent you an e-mail. Yeah, me too. I will be applying to PhD programs this fall. I am also poor, but I like what I do.

Re: F/S: 1972 Honda 175 Cafe moto (L.A.)

Bump.

Re: F/S: 1972 Honda 175 Cafe moto (L.A.)

Hey Andrew, come to the U of Memphis, sell that hot bike to Jason, buy another moped and blast with us in Memphis !!!!!!!

Re: F/S: 1972 Honda 175 Cafe moto (L.A.)

Re: F/S: 1972 Honda 175 Cafe moto (L.A.)

Thanks, Erin. I just e-mailed you.

Re: F/S: 1972 Honda 175 Cafe moto (L.A.)

Sounds like a plan Aaron. I just have to get into Memphis now.
