Gordo58 Posted March 27, 2024 Report Share Posted March 27, 2024 Hi Guys, I am starting the rebuild of a 1983 Honda Cl250s ( silk road), and just wondered if anyone out there has had one or still has one. I need to ask a couple of technical questions if possible. Many Thanks Gordon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubarb Posted July 30, 2024 Report Share Posted July 30, 2024 If it's a CL250S it's not a "Silk road". The CL wasn't named. The earlier CT250S is the "Silk road", but the two are almost identical; it's virtually only the seat which is different. The CT has a single seat and a large rear rack, while the CL has a dual seat. Anyway, I have a CL, my second one, as my first one was stolen over 40 years ago. I'm open to any reasonable questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubarb Posted July 30, 2024 Report Share Posted July 30, 2024 Looking at the photo's, (the blue bike) that's a CT250S "Silk road", not the later CL250S. Almost all parts are common between the 2 models. The basic engine is shared with the CB250RS road bike, but the gearing and the tuning are different.
