Domestic CL72

[davomoto]

Check this one out on Ebay. I have only seen one domestic CL72, and it was a 63. It has front rubber pegs, but the smaller tail light, turn signals, but the speedo is MPH, not KPH. CL77 style rear fender, aluminum slider forks etc. Anyone have any info on this later dmestic CL72?

hmmmm, my 63 cl250 is the same as the one on ebay alloy forks small tail lite and the same rear fender, and there is a small turn lite and a two rotted rubber pegs that was in the box of parts, but has the larger brakes, maybe I shouldnt put the early forks and brakes I got off my spare rust bucket on it, what do you think guys??

Whats the serial # on that 63? Does it have eye to eye shocks, or eye to clevis?

Dave it cl72 317517 shocks have eye on top clevis on the bottom, mph speedo,black and silver paint rear fender is like the one on ebay a semi wrap around

Interesting! All of the 63s that I have seen have eye to eye shocks. I'm afraid that our domestic model database is lacking, as we see so few of them here in the states. Add to that how they have been molested through the years, and it's really hard to say what is correct or not!

The one on the Japanese website appears to have shouldered alum rims. Wonder if they are replacements or originals??
