cd 185 twin
« on: November 04, 2007, 11:21:04 PM »
hi there, i have found myself with my farther inlaws honda CD185 twin 1979, im starting to do a bit of restoration work on it , not that it needs much as it is in mint condition and has only 3500 miles on it,

if anyone can give me any information on these bikes id be greatfull,

if there is a market out there for these anymore or maybe if i need parts. i cant find alot of info so i wonder how rare it is or is it that it was not a very good bike?????

It certainly won't be a rare machine as there were plenty of them sold but I suppose most will be rusty wrecks by now. David Silver is the place for spares, though you  may find a few things on Ebay.

They are a good reliable bike for commuting but many enthusiasts would consider the CD185 a yawn a minute machine. No doubt there are a few eccentric collectors who would love to get their mitts onto a low mileage example . Take a look at Ebay item 110189061883.
