The Honda CD175 was a standard motorcycle manufactured by Honda from 1967 to 1979, described by Honda as a "great new all-rounder, at home around town or putting the highway behind you."

The CD175 was the touring model in Honda's 175cc range, including the CB175 sportier model and the CL175 off-road version. The bike shared design elements and components with other Honda models, such as the pressed-steel backbone frame, also known as T bone.

The CD175 had an electric starter, turn signals, deeply valanced mudguards, and rearview mirrors. The style and appearance of the earlier CD motorcycles were similar to the CB450K0 Black Bomber.

In 1968, the Honda CD175 featured modifications that allowed for export in the United States market, including a different fuel tank, larger battery and tool covers, updated lighting and turn signal switches, and a hybrid welded-tube frame.

Later models were fitted with an open diamond frame that used the engine as a stressed member. The structure was equipped with a telescopic fork and 115 mm wheel travel on the front and twin shock absorbers with 64 mm wheel travel on the rear, offering reliable suspension performance and handling.

For braking purposes, the Honda CD175 rolled on wire-spoke wheels with a 140 mm drum braking unit on the front and a 130 mm drum unit on the rear for optimum braking performance.

For power, the machine had a 174cc four-stroke twin-cylinder air-cooled engine that boasted 17 hp with a maximum peak at 9,000 rpm.
