Probably an expensive item in its day. I was that convinced there would not be anybody wanting to buy it in this country I fired it in the skip at our local recycling centre. 😆😆

Cheers all. My finger is creeping closer to the Buy button. Im being superficial but in my opinion, the 500s are nicer to look at.

Are these cb450s good resto projects?

I'm kinda leaning to cb550 or cb750 but not sure on the
Honda twins?

That starter motor works, that's a good thing on on of these.

450 is always classic but i think parts are getting more difficult and expensive. 500/550 still has some difficult parts but there are still most out there though a lot in US(same as 450)
PM Ash about 450 i think he has more idea
