Hello, I am new to this site,I have been involved w CL72 & 77's for 6 years racing vintage MX,several of the bikes that have come my way I have put aside for restoration ..most recently a CL300 fr#CL300 1000259 engine#CL300E-1000264 it may have been a domestic model brought to US,it has factory turn signals, it is black with silver painted tank & fenders. I believe it would be 1968? Are there production figures known for CL300? Does anyone know of a newer one(higher serial#?) I am thinking it could be near the very last of the 305 scramblers made.

Now ya see 305 we get some fresh blood and activity and you go and pi** em off!
CL300, There is a link to the VJMC on the home page(I think) called "carbon dating" That will help you figure out the year of manufacture.P.S. if you cant find it shout out again.Good Luck,Steve

Thanks,Steve! it's 1968 for sure,not a hold over 1967 as they were all CL77 (not that there is anything wrong with that!?)ps; hard to pi** me off, I have a dozen 250's & 305's CLs&CBs which makes me happy,but no Dreams....unless 150 Benlys count..I have an early one of these.

Actually I don't believe that any CL/CBs were made in 1968. That was the first year of the replacement 350's. It may be titled as a 1968 as Honda had a habit of titling them in the year sold. You could probably have a 1966 even that was actually made in 1964. Under the tank there is usually a tag wheiyth actual year or the serial number can be found in the parts manual. Most 67's had the seam down center of tank on top. JMHO. I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken.(ha) Charlie

I today looked at a CL77 with the engine# CL300E-10002xx. Never saw that before. Could it be a "home" model?
