Description

In 1965, Honda decided there was an American market for a 305cc scrambler. Cycle World immediately tested the bike and liked it, even though it was not the production racer they had hoped for. Cycle World referred to the CL77 as a “gentleman's scrambler,” stating, “It is, in fact, the appeal of scrambler-type styling that sells the CL77.” Period testers found the CL to be too heavy for competition and not as fast as the CB, but perfectly adequate for both offroad fun and reliably getting to work.
The four-stroke engine was almost identical to that used in the CB77 Super Hawk, with the same aluminum cases and chain-driven overhead cam. A lower compression ratio to aid low rpm power was allied to long, upswept pipes to assist ground clearance, and reliability was ensured by full-flow oil filtration.
The CL77 is nothing short of an Icon in today's vintage motorcycle market. Finding an example in this overall condition is no easy feat as most of these bikes were used and abused. This bike has spent the last 5 years in a the Throttlestop Motorcycle Museum and underwent a full tune up to ready it for another decade's worth of fun. Don't miss this prime example of motorcycling history!
