The 68 cb350 had become a restoration project, so I picked up this cute little 1972 cb175 to ride while the 350 gets done.
6000 miles ... 800 bucks

Nice find! It looks like it's in great shape for $800.00. Enjoy it.

If that mileage is genuine the thing is barely broken in.Sturdy gems!A friend rode his girlfriend's one everywhere two up and full throttle. Never missed a beat! Later he bought himself a new(Bout '73 or '74) Triumph Daytona.It proved to be somewhat less than as reliable!

It runs great, I'm really pleased with it so far.
If anyone has a spare luggage rack for this bike please let me know.

Man, that's a sweet bike! I bought one last year for about $700, with 3700 miles. It needed carb work, points, and some little stuff. I love riding it around town, it gets 65-70mpg. People always come over to me with "What year is that?" or "I used to have one of those." Just make sure it's jetted right, timing is correct, and no intake leaks. To see how I acquired this useful info, and why mine has a new top end see this thread-intake leaks
heres a pic of my bike
