The '''Honda CL72''' was a [[Four stroke|4-stroke]] 250cc [[motorcycle]] built by [[Honda]] between 1962 and 1965. The CL designation indicated this model to be the "Scrambler" version which implied some off-road capability prior to actual dirt-bikes gaining popularity. Honda introduced the 250cc CL72 to appeal to budding off-road riders. These bikes sold in huge numbers, and while heavy and unwieldy, in modified form were quite successful in desert racing events. Later models such as the [[Honda CL77|CL77]] had a [[cylinder]] [[bore]] increase to raise the capacity to 305cc. The [[:Category:Honda CL series|CL series of bikes]] were actually street bikes with a higher rear fender, a braced handlebar, and a high-mount [[exhaust]]. | The '''Honda CL72''' was a [[Four stroke|4-stroke]] 250cc [[motorcycle]] built by [[Honda]] between 1962 and 1965.
