Vehicle Detail
This model the CB 450 K-1 was the first year after the "black bomber" CB 450 and the first year with a 5 speed. It was only available in 1968 and part of 1969. It was the last year that Honda put chrome on the side of the gas tank.This is a very collectible bike and the components alone are worth a significant amount of money. I have owned and improved this bike over the last several years,but it's time to let someone else enjoy this classic. Almost all original and very rare! Engine top end rebuilt with OEM piston, rings, & valves Bike was running prior to professional rebuild New clutch Most cables replace with correct "grey" for this era Seat rebuilt by COOL RETRO BIKES with correct material & white piping Exhaust original and solid with no rust Front fender new & installed out of OEM packaging All electric components work properly Electric starter works, drive unit functional with wear Painted 2 years ago to correct "candy" blue Chrome is very good, very light pits on turn signals & mirrors; both easily replaced Rides & runs GREAT; looks awesome with clear Texas title and current state inspection. It is ridden weekly; and always loved and garaged! In process of locating speedo and tach cables for the new set of OEM instruments that were just replaced.
