Cool bike. I bought my first bike a couple years ago, a 1975 Honda CB750. Now I understand why these old Honda's are so addicting. They're great bikes to learn to work on.
I rode a cb 175 from austin tx. to 80 miles north of memphis back in 1975. And a suzuki savage fitted with a 72 cb 350 engine i rode from new orleans to memphis two years ago. ( a honzuki i called it ) the 350 twins were some vey well made and dependable engines . 👍
Definitely had to remove it to fit that oversize front tire. I know a couple guys who prefer the look of no front fender on thier custom builds like this, I happen to prefer mine left in place. Regardless of my opinion, this is a great looking bike like you pointed out!
so I actually had to swap the front forks to a later style that had staggered bolt holes and never got around to getting a fender for it. will likely put a shorty fender on it one day
No plans in the near future but I'll put it on the list if we start to get into the CB125! I might check out a CB125 facebook owners group in the meantime to see if anyone else has done it, I always find the owners group on fb to be full of super helpful people.
I really like these "featured builds".... more please 👍
Agree! 👍
Dude this is Dope! I love it. I just recently received my stepfather’s CL350, and I’m in the process of fixing her up now. This video is awesome!!
Very nice build. Pop had a 1972 Honda SL 350. A friend had a 1968 Honda 350 Scrambler. The 305 scramblers were very cool.

Beautiful bike. Great job.
What’s up Jarod, my name is Jarod too:D
thanks for sharing........
cool styling
Got the same bike off Craigslist, it's how I discovered cafe racers. Nice work!
Sweet bike nice work
I would love to know what tires you have on there. Exactly the style I’m looking for!
I believe these are Shinko 244 tires. 👍
I would love to make my 1973 cb175 look like this
Super cool. Before and after pictures are fascinating to see. Great personal touches... where did you get the seat recovered like that?
I custom ordered it from texavina.com
What Kind of blue is the tank? Bali blue?
What type of tires did you use?
Definitely not candy sapphire blue or Hawaiian blue metallic it kinda looks like the Ford blue tbh
If you ever want to part with it lmk
Did you paint the rims yourself? Really love what you've done with it.
Jarod did! He does paint work in a small popup tent he mentioned while we shot this. He painted everything including the tank himself.
Nice bike. What happened to the front fender? (Where I live it rains and has mud...)

This is the second CMC video I've seen with a bike from Vermont, just curious, what's the connection? Isn't CMC in Texas? (I'm in NH with my CB350!)
They need titles to register them in Texas so they register them in Texas to get around it because Vermont doesn’t require a title
What tires are those?
Pls upload video for Honda cb125t2 . 6 v to 12 v conversion step by step

Is there a before pic?
1:04 appears to show how it looked when he bought it. Very different.
Is the bike street legal? I see a license plate but no blinkers?
Don't need turn signals on a motorcycle to be street legal. Riders can use hand signals in place of turn signals.
In 1973 turn signals became mandatory in the US
Low handlebars look cool but my god do they ride like garbage. After 20 mins of riding your back is dead. I put the originals back on mine.
I personally love the tall OEM scrambler bars but hey, everyone has their own style!
