Honda CL description

My 1965 Honda CL 72 250cc Street Scrambler is a very collectible version of this famous model produced between 1962-1965. It has the straight-through exhaust system, the small brake drums and the shorter rear fender. This model is very desirable as it was the last of the 250s with the above mentioned items. I also have the internal baffle for each pipe that go with the bike.

As the photos show it is in pristine condition, has new tires, brakes, chain and sprockets, wheel bearings, brake cables, throttle cable, speedometer and cable, fuel petcock rebuilt, clutch rebuilt, engine rebuilt, transmission rebuilt, new fork seals, air filters, new battery, valves lashed, timing set, carbs synced and rebuilt along with anything that need replacement or chroming. I did not ride this bike until it was in "as new condition", fully serviced and roadworthy.

The paint is excellent as the photos show, there are three very small dents on the right side of the gas tank noticeable only in certain light. All fasteners, hardware, electrical and running gear are correct for this bike. 

Everything on the bike works, it runs and shifts as it should and of course has that great scrambler sound! I drove it over 150 miles before I put it on display in my home. I fueled it today, turned on the gas valve, choked it and it started on the second kick. Whether you plan to show this bike, drive it around the neighborhood or on the street it is sure to get attention. 

This is one of the nicest examples of this vintage scrambler and will only go up in value. I am downsizing my home so I am selling my collection of bikes and cars. This bike will make for fun conversation wherever is is ridden or shown.

I have a clear title in hand, and I can assist with shipping and storage for up to a month once the bike is paid. Shipping costs are the buyers expense. The bike is sold as is with no warranty and you are welcome to inspect it anytime during the auction.

I will not accept any bids from buyers with less then 10 transactions in their history or any negative feedback unless they call me first before bidding and we discuss their situation. 

This is a "no reserve" auction so the highest bidder will own this beautiful piece of motorcycle history. 

Call Arnie at 651-261-5669 with any questions and thank you for looking.

Dan Gurney’s Two-wheeled Terror at IMS

Tue, 09 Dec 2008

When the Gurney Alligator A6 made its debut in 2002, the world saw a glimpse of a new concept in sport motorcycles. Long, low, quick and efficient like its namesake, the ’Gator was like nothing we’d seen before. The bike was the brainchild of Dan Gurney, the legendary F1 and Le Mans winning driver and championship-winning sports car builder.

Classic Off-Road Bikes Featured in Braving Baja: 1,000 Miles to Glory Exhibition

Sat, 06 Apr 2013

Back in the 60s, American Honda tested the durability of its motorcycles by sending a CL72 Scrambler on a 950-mile trek through rocks, sand washes, dry lake beds, mountain passes and paved roads. Fifty years later, that legendary run is remembered for inspiring one of the most significant off-road races in the world—the Baja 1000. In celebration, the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles is hosting a tribute dinner, one-day off road show, and summer-long exhibition called Braving Baja, 1,000 Miles to Glory.
