Are these the "low bars"?

Sorry about adding one picture per post. From my phone, it didn't want to add more than one picture per post. I think the issue was with photobucket. I'd add a few different photos but they'd all show up as multiple posts of the same picture.

Anyway, what can you guys tell me about my CP77?

Joel

That's a really great find. Love the winkers!

Low bars are actually completely flat.

Another thing I noticed is that the engine numbers and the frame numbers match. I was under the impression (from the last few old Honda's I've owned) that numbers rarely matched.

It happens. My 1961 CB72 has matching numbers.

Others can be 200 numbers adrift.

I found a list of VINs on CMSNL that included CP77 numbers. Turns out mine is actually a 1964 and it's a "type 2" whatever that means.
