The Honda CL70 "Scrambler 70" for 1969 followed the
pattern for all Scramblers: slightly raised handlebars, exhaust pipe upswept
just above the crankcase and relatively horizontal. This model was sold in
1969 and was available in two colors: Candy Red with silver and Candy
Blue with silver. The frame and swingarm were painted the candy color;
but the headlight bucket was silver and so was the fuel tank. The badge
was stamped into the tank and a rubber knee patch was attached to the rear
sides of the tank. The speedometer was housed in the headlight bucket. The
upper fork covers (i.e., fork ears) were chrome. The engine was an OHC
single cylinder displacing 72cc. It had a 4-speed transmission and manual
clutch. The engine serial number began CL70-100002.

similar to the previous year. Two colors were available: Candy Sapphire

Again the frame and swingarm were painted the candy color; but so was
the headlight bucket. The fuel tank was silver with stripes colored the same
as the frame. The tank emblem/badge was replaced with a decal. There was
no knee patch attached to the rear sides of the tank. The speedometer was
separate from the headlight bucket. The upper fork covers (i.e., fork ears)
were chrome. The shock springs were covered. The engine was an OHC
single cylinder displacing 72cc. It had a 4-speed transmission and manual
clutch. The engine serial number began CL70-200002.

upper fork covers, and tank stripes were painted the candy color. The fuel
