Introduced for 1979 and based on the preceding CD175 and CD185 models, the Honda CD200 was aimed squarely at the market sector that regarded motorcycles merely as cheap and convenient transport rather than thrilling lifestyle accessories. Not exactly an exciting performer, the CD200 would nevertheless cruise comfortably at 65mph while at the same time delivering around 70 miles to every gallon. A lengthy production run of over 20 years proved the rightness of the basic concept.
The private vendor advises us that this CD200 has been restored over a period of time, benefiting from a new alternator, tank rubber, clutch lever, clutch springs, exhaust pipe joint, headlight, and various nuts, bolts, screws, O-rings, etc (bills available). The machine last ran in May of this year. It should be noted that the speedometer was swapped for a second-hand one at 42,168 miles (the current odometer reading is 25,060 miles). Offered with a V5C Registration Certificate (the engine number recorded on the V5C is MA01E-2013477) expired MoT and sundry invoices. Please note this machine is recorded as an Insurance Write Off on the HPI database: Category C Insurance Loss. Vehicle Extensively Damaged But Repairable in 2015. The V5C states "this vehicle has been salvaged because the estimate cost of commercial repair was more that the value of the vehicle". Prospective bidders must satisfy themselves as to the condition, completeness, and originality of this Lot.
