Honda CL description

Up for auction I have a nice 1965 Honda CL77 305 Scrambler. This is a first year bike. I have a PA title for the bike, title is not in my name but have the contact info for the previous owner to transfer the title. 

The bike fires right up on first or second kick and runs well. I have recently gone through both carbs and replaced the spark plugs. There is no air box. The right cylinder seems to run a little rich, so it could use some fine tuning. The previous owner said he had recently replaced the top end, I have no proof of this, but the engine runs good and does not make any noises. The bike shifts into all the gears nice and smooth. The clutch does slip a little in 3rd and 4th gear. There are no oil leaks. The engine has also been repainted and some of the paint is bubbling and peeling off. The pipes are original and in really nice condition, there are some scuffs at the back of the pipes.

The bodywork has been repainted a nice silver color. Overall the bodywork is in decent shape. Both the fenders are very nice, no dings or dents. The side panels do have some chips and scratches. As far as the tank, the sides have been filled, smoothed, and painted. There are some imperfections in the tank, some cracks and chips in the paint. Inside of the tank has been resealed at some point. The seat is very nice, no cracks or tears. Both the wheels are overall in good shape. They do have some little rust spots here and there. The tires are dry rotted and cracked. The headlight and taillight work. There are no turn signals. The handlebars, grips and controls are very nice. The speedometer looks great and works like it should. Both the front and rear brakes work great. 

Overall this is a great bike to fine tune and ride it how it is or a great candidate to restore for your collection. These bikes are getting very hard to find, especially the early models. I am willing to ship the bike anywhere in the world. Buyer is responsible for all shipping costs and arrangements to be picked up at my location. If you have less than 20 feedback please contact me prior to bidding.
