The SL175 was Honda's small street-legal trail bike of the early 1970s, built around the 175 cc parallel twin from the CB175 roadster. It added a 21-inch front wheel, raised exhaust and off-road styling, giving novice riders a light, kick-started twin that could cope with dirt roads and easy trails as well as the commute.
