Honda CL description

 Looking for a pristine CL450, look no further.  This 1972 Honda CL450 has been completely restored;  "a frame-off restoration".  It is in showroom condition, you can proudly ride it or show it.
   When dismantled, all painted surfaces were bead blasted to bare metal.  Gas tank interior  was de-rusted by a Rusteco solution;  rusteco.com .  Gas tank and air filter covers were professionally painted.  New decals applied and then painted with a clear coat, a very good UV protection.
  A used but VERY nice condition replacement speedometer installed on the bike reading, 9,821 miles.  The original speedometer and title read, 25,045 miles, which was replaced because it was dented. Exhaust system, both rims, gas cap, rear spokes, head light ears and the top bolts of front forks were all re-chromed. New wheel bearings, seals on both front and rear wheels and new tapered steering be
arings installed.  Wheels were trued up at the local Honda Shop. New rubber rim strips  inner tubes and tires installed;  Dunlop K70's. All turn signals and front stems are new.  Chain and sprockets are like new.  New battery.
  Engine overhauled, new pistons and rings;  .025 over, (1st bore).  Valves cleaned and and lapped in, new valve seals installed.  New cam chain.  Transmission and shifting assembly are in perfect order.  Carbs cleaned and rebuilt.  Lots of NOS nuts, bolts and screws, handle bar grips, levers, foot pegs and mirrors..  Everything works and runs well.  This bike has been restored to original and show room condition.   Just one minor bad; the rear fender at one time had someone work out a dent and there is some telltale evidence, but hardly noticeable, the chrome is good.   All this bike needs is a new owner, as I have another Honda waiting in the wings for me to restore.  If you need more info??? Please contact me with your questions.

  The VIN#, CL4505016740,  the ENGINE # CL450E-5016764.  So, the engine is only 24 off of the VIN# which is very close for a Honda assembly line, making this bike a numbers matching bike.

  Also,  A tool kit is included.

  Shipping is responsibility of buyer.  I will help if I can.
  Payment thru PayPal.  Down payment of  $500 in 48 hours and balance in 5 days.
  If you have (0) in feedback, please contact me before you bid.
  No disappointments here.

Honda Reports Q1 2014-2015 Sales Results

Tue, 29 Jul 2014

Honda reported sales of 4.137 million motorcycles over its first quarter ended June 30, 2014. That represents a 2.0% increase over the results of the same quarter the previous year, which doesn’t sound like much. But then you remember that 2.0% still represents an additional 83,000 motorcycles (including ATVs), such is the scale involved in a company like Honda.

Motorcycle Beginner Diary: What I Love About Being a Motorcyclist

Mon, 06 Jun 2011

Hey folks, it’s Dennis here, Motorcycle.com‘s Designated Newbie. As documented in our Motorcycle Beginner articles (and if you haven’t read them yet, check out the Related Reading links below!) we’re taking a look at the new rider experience and what it means to be a motorcyclist. I’ve had a couple of weeks’ worth of riding on the new Honda CBR250R (more on that in our next Motorcycle Beginner article) and so far I’m having a blast.
