2004 Honda CD200
The Honda CD200 was sold new in South Africa until late 2004. It has a twin cylinder 10-degree cylinder angle with a 360-degree crank shaft angle engine which meant the pistons moved together and reached top dead centre (TDC) and bottom dead centre (BDC) at the same time.
It makes a great little bike for minor roads, keeping up with the traffic well, and the engine seems indestructible. Maintenance is cheap and relatively easy. What a superb little bike. It's a shame that Honda have apparently abandoned the utility motorcycle market, perhaps because of the current popularity of scooters.
This motorcycle has been rebuilt into a Cafe Racer and in excellent condition. Kick start only.
