A better proposition than US$1500 for the CB175 here, https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink/topic?share_fid=74616&share_tid=14862&share_pid=251552&url=http%3A%2F%2Fcb1100forum%2Ecom%2Fforum%2Fshowthread%2Ephp%3Ftid%3D14862%​26pid%3D251552%23pid251552&share_type=t&link_source=app

I had a much closer road trip on my Honda Scrambler. A '67 model I bought after high school and working at the Del Monte Cannery to save funds.
Living in California at the time, a friend and I took a road trip down the coast. Starting at the Cliff House in San Francisco, we road all the way to San Diego down Highway one, then to US 101. Monterey, Carmel, Big Sur, and of course crossing Bixby Bridge made famous by the opening scene in "Then Came Bronson." For those not familiar with the tv program, check it out on Youtube. Funny thing is, I still own and ride that bike today. Along with my 2013 CB. The Scrambler was my first bike and I've kept it all these years. It is a testament to Honda's design and engineering. All stock and un restored. This year, I found a set of straight pipes (no snuff or nots) and bolted them on. What a great sound! Every bike has a story. Let's share them while we ride them.

If I had made the same trip on that bike it would NEVER, EVER come up for sale. Fluids drained. Mothballed and into the corner of the den it would go.
