175 Project
Started this a while back. Finally getting back to it. The frame is a ‘71 CB175. Was looking to take some queues from the Honda 50 Dream, and some other vintage bikes.
I’ll post updates as they become available.

Re: 175 Project
Is that a Cappellini oil cooler/filter system? I used a few of their different parts on my CL77 build last year.
The bike looks excellent with good attention to detail on the build.

Re: 175 Project
Thanks
Got two milestones in front of me; fab an exhaust, and finish up the tank.
Bodywork & paint really isn’t my thing, and the aftermarket tank is proving to be quite the challenge.
Bought some aftermarket exhaust pipes and automotive megaphones. The down pipes are way off on the #1 cylinder. Will need to heat and bend. The megaphones are too big, both in length and diameter.
More on this later. Thanks for your interest & comments.

Re: 175 Project
Photo of what I’m thinking for the exhaust. Keep in mind the length
will be about 6” shorter and somehow reduce the diameter down to 2 1/2” at the end.-Ray

Re: 175 Project
Mentioned the Honda Dream 50. It was a JDM model. Depending on year; had a red or black frame. The exhaust is what I’m hoping to mimic, only angled up at the rear

Re: 175 Project
Brief update. Still need to seal & paint the tank, but got it on to double check fitment. Seat is in position, rear fender with tail light, exhaust needs to be finished up. Also need to finish wiring.

Re: 175 Project
Thanks. There’s actually two dents. The inside one clears the frame. The outer one you noticed is clearance for the kick starter. The bike doesn’t have a starter. In its place is a custom oil cooler/filter.
