Mine was green. You couldn't fault the engine...but the rest of the bike...oh dear!

I used to have a CB200 with Honda's cable-operated device that looked like a disc brake but wasn't really a brake at all and blown shocks.

That was a real adventure bike...every ride was an adventure!

I had a CB125 with the same front brake weren`t they fun in the wet hmy:

My first bike a SS50 5speed had the same cable disc set up as well, awesome stopping power!!

I believe it was motorcycling's first anti-lock brake...mine wouldn't lock the front wheel except when the mechanism jammed in the 'on' position...then it would eventually generate enough heat to lock the front wheel solid.

Ironically the 'economy' model CD175 had a drum front brake that actually worked.
