Honda offered an earlier version of the CB175 for the model year 1968. This bike combined features of the 1965-1967 CB160 with the 1969 and later CB175. The bike had a 174 cc engine, dual carburetors, five-speed transmission, 12-volt electrics and turn signal indicators, electric and kick starter. It had dual drum brakes and an integrated speedometer/headlight assembly with no tachometer. The engine is used as part of the frame, unlike the 1969 and later CB175, and has a sharper forward slope to the cylinders. This version of the CB175, known as the "K0", was offered in the Asian, European, and Canadian markets as well as the United States.
