Cb450

You must have at least 5 feedbacks to bid or your bid will be cancelled, sorry but due to past EBAY experiences that is the way it is. HONDA CB450 SUPER SPORT " BLACK BOMBER ". I HAVE OWNED THIS FOR OVER 20 YEARS AND THOUGHT I'D NEVER SELL IT...BUT I HAVE NOT BEEN GIVING HER THE ATTENTION SHE DESERVES. THIS HAD 10,000 WHEN I BOUGHT IT...NOW AFTER ALL THES YEARS, IT HAS 11,245. IT HAS BEEN SITTING IN DRY STORAGE SINCE LAST LICENSED ( 2013 ) BEING SOLD WITH A TITLE IN MY NAME. BY THE TIME THE NEW OWNER RECIEVES THIS BIKE I WILL HAVE TAKEN THE PROPER MEASURES TO GET HER GOING AGAIN....FRESH GAS, CARB CLEANING, NEW BATTERY, ETC. THIS IS NOT SOME GARAGE QUEEN THAT IS OVER RESTORED...THIS IS AN ORIGINAL ANTIQUE MOTORCYCLE. I FEEL RESTORED BIKES LACK CHARACTER AND SOUL. A 50 YEAR OLD MOTORCYCLE SHOULD LOOK THAT WAY. LIKE WRINKLES ON AN OLD MANS FACE, PATINA ( YA I SAID IT ) IS LIKE A BADGE OF HONOR. I AM THE KINDA GUY THAT TAKES OFF A PERFECT REUPHOLSTERED SEAT TO PUT ON A LESS THAN PERFECT ORIGINAL. I WOULD RATHER IT BE ORIGINAL AND IN WORSE SHAPE THAN BE INCORRECT FOR THE BIKE. ( JUST ME ) IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A BIKE THAT LOOKS LIKE IT JUST LEFT THE SHOWROOM THEN LOOK ELSEWHERE...IF, ON THE OTHER HAND YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A GREAT LOOKING CLASSIC TO RIDE AND ENJOY ....THIS COULD BE THE ONE. I HAVE SEEN A FEW OF THESE SELL IN THE PAST AND THEY USUALLY HAVE MORE THAN A FEW THINGS THAT ARE NOT CORRECT FOR THE BIKE. THIS BIKE HAS THE CORRECT 4 SPEED MOTOR, CORRECT BOMBER SHIFTER LEVER, SIDE COVER BOLTS, UNCHOPPED FENDERS, ORIGINAL PAINT, ONE PIECE MUFFLERS, ECT. THE THINGS THAT ARE NOT CORRECT....FOOT PEG RUBBERS ARE CB450 HONDA BUT NOT THE WAFFLE PATTERN OF THE ORIGINALS AND THE CARBS ARE THE LATER 450 ONES WITH THE EASIER ADJUSTERS...I BELIEVE I HAVE THE ORIGINALS WITH THE HARD TO REACH AIR SCREWS...IF I FIND THEM THEY GO WITH THE BIKE. THIS BIKE HAS SURFACE RUST IN THE TANK...ALWAYS HAS...IT'S NEVER BEEN A PROBLEM. I HAVE ALWAYS USED FUEL FILTERS. I WILL INCLUDE THE EXTRA TANK SHOWN IF THE BUY IT NOW IS USED OR SOME OTHER SATISFACTORY DEAL IS MADE. THIS IS AN ORIGINAL PAINT TANK THAT HAS ITS FLAWS BUT IS SO CLEAN INSIDE YOU COULD SERVE SOUP OUT OF IT. I ALSO BELIEVE I HAVE THE LEFT HAND BLACK SLIDER SWITCH THAT GOES OVER THE WHITE ONE SHOWN...I JUST NEVER PUT IT ON SINCE IT WORKED WELL AS IS. ON THIS BIKE THERE ARE SMALL NICKS, CHIPS, SCRATCHES AND RUST SPOTS TYPICAL OF A HALF CENTURY OLD MOTORCYCLE. BUT AS SEEN IN THE PHOTOS THERE IS NOTHING THAT DETRACTS FOR ITS BEAUTY. THER STILL IS GLOSS TO THE PAINT BETWEEN THE FLAWS. THE CHROME STILL SHINES. THE CLOSE UP PHOTO OF THE FRONT RIM SHOWS THE WROST OF THE CHROME FLAWS...BACK RIM AND PIPES ARE NICE. MAKE AN OFFER AND IF YOU ARE THE TYPE OF PERSON THAT GETS SATISFACTION FROM BRINGING STUFF BACK TO LIFE DO IT QUICKLY BEFORE I GET IT GOIN AGAIN...AND YOU'LL BE THE FIRST TO HEAR IT IN 4 YRS. CHECK MY FEEDBACK AND BID WITH CONFIDENCE! SHIPPING CAN BE EXPENSIVE...CHECK INTO IT BEFORE BIDDING....SHIPPING COSTS AND ARRANGEMENTS ARE THE BUYERS RESPONSIBILITY...I WILL HELP LOAD ONTO TRUCK.
