1974 Honda Honda

I’M RELISTING THIS BIKE DUE TO A MEDICAL EMERGENCY AND I WASN’T SURE IF I WOULD BE AVAILABLE DURING THE ENDING DATE/TIME OF THE AUCTION. I APOLIGIZE FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE THIS MAY HAVE CAUSED. YOU ARE BIDDING ON A 1974 HONDA CL-450 MOTORCYCLE. I PURCHASED THIS BIKE IN 1991 AND ROAD IT A FEW TIMES BEFORE I PLACED IT IN EXTENDED STORAGE. SO, IT HASN’T RUN IN ABOUT 20 YEARS. WHEN IT WAS RUNNING IT WOULD PULL STRONG THRU ALL GEARS WITH NO PROBLEM AND WAS REALLY THRILLING TO RIDE. ALL THE INSTURMENTATION WORKED AND ALL THE OTHER FEATURES SUCH AS LIGHTS, HORNS, ETC. THE TANK WAS DENTED AND I BOUGHT A REPLACEMENT TANK THAT HAS A SMALL DENT IN THE RIGHT FRONT AREA. YOU MAY BE ABLE TO SEE THE DENT IN ONE OF THE PHOTOS. BUT LIFE CHANGED AND THUS THE EXTENDED STORAGE. TANK WAS COMPLETELY DRAINED ALONG WITH THE CARBURATORS FLOAT BOWLS. THE BIKE WAS SPRAYED WITH WD-40 AND STORED IN AN ENCLOSED BUILDING OUT OF SUNLIGHT AND THE ELEMENTS. LIFE HAS CHANGED AGAIN AND IT’S TIME TO THIN THE COLLECTION. I RECENTLY PULLED THE BIKE OUT OF STORAGE AND GAVE IT A GOOD WASH AND CLEANING. IT HAS 19,985 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. I MADE NO ATTEMPT TO GET THE BIKE RUNNING SO IT WILL BE SOLD NOT RUNNING AFTER STORAGE. THE ENGINE IS FREE AND HAS GOOD COMPRESSION. BUT COMING OUT OF STORAGE MAY MEAN CARBS NEED CLEANING AND AN ENGINE TUNE-UP. I LOOKED OVER THE BIKE AND THESE ARE THE BLEMISHES I NOTICED. FRONT FOOT PEGS DRY ROT. PROBABLY WOULDN’T HURT TO REPLACE ALL FUEL LINES. THE TIRES HOLD AIR AND PROBABLY OK FOR SHORT RIDES BUT SHOULD BE REPLACED. CHROME HAS SOME PITTING ON REAR FENDER AND REAR SHOCKS. THERE IS A DENT IN THE RIGHT HEADLIGHT BRACKET. THERE ARE NO MIRRORS WITH THIS BIKE. OVERALL THE CHROME IS IN GOOD CONDITION. PAINT ON THE TANK AND SIDE COVERS IS VERY GOOD. I HAVE THE ORIGINAL KEYS, TOOL KIT, AND OWNER’S MAUAL. I ALSO HAVE NEW FORK RUBBERS TO PLACE ON THE SLIDERS AND PETCOCK FOR THE TANK. SEAT IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH NO RIPS OR TEARS. THE PIPES ARE IN GOOD SOLID SHAPE. NICE THING ABOUT THIS BIKE IS IT’S PRETTY MUCH ALL THERE AND ORIGINAL AND IN VERY GOOD SHAPE TO BE 37 YEARS OLD. WITH A LITTLE MORE EFFORT IT COULD TURN INTO A SHOW BIKE. BUYER IS RESPONSILE FOR SHIPPING ARRANGMENTS AND EXPENSES, I CAN ASSIST WITH LOADING WITH A SHIPPER. BIKE MUST BE PICKED UP WITHIN 14 DAYS AFTER AUCTION ENDS UNLESS OTHER ARRANGEMENT ARE MADE. BIKE IS SOLD AS IS WITH NO WARRANTY, WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET. A $200.00 NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT WITHIN 48 HOURS OF AUCTION END AND BALANCE PAID EITHER BY CASH OR "CLEARED" CERTIFIED CHECK BEFORE BIKE IS PICKED UP. PLEASE LOOK AT PICTURES CLOSELY AND ASK QUESTIONS.
