Frame number and year #CL72-1001662
CL72Just my opinion, but it seems that the numbers might have been "helped" out some. Either that, or the line technician might have been sucking on some sake or Akadama red port wine.
Frame and engine numbersYes, they are all over the place. Very funny! I measured the "ones" on the engine and the motor both were .250" tall. It seems like they should be metric.
I've had the bike for about 18 years and I still talk to the guy I got it from so I'll have to ask about the history. All I know for sure is that the motor was seized up around 1974. The bike has a total hippie look. Maybe I should search for drugs as well! Tim
CL77I have a CL frame that only has two letters stamped on it. Apparently a replacement due to accident (?) Frame from the way the seat mounts (lip affair) and the seat itself seems to be a 1967 type. I believe the gas tank may have also been replaced as no typical 1967 seam .
Re: Frame and engine numbersI ask the height cause the numbers aren't in line as they are when HONDA stamped them.
HONDA did use some sort of tool to put the numbers on the frame. I'd say that is a replacement frame. ..............lm
CL72/77Already checked my tank and Dang!! It was empty!! Some days you just can't win.
