CB450A Info
« on: May 23, 2013, 05:54:53 PM »
I just recently purchased a CB450A for $200 (pic shown below just after getting it home).  I know that some of you have worked on these 450's before and was wondering if you could post any and all links for information / forums that you have come across regarding these bikes.

Thanks!

No worries. It's a fun bike. Enjoy it. The twin guys know their stuff just like these SOHC4 guys know their 4s.

Good engine, lasts forever, electronic ignition, no clutches to wear out (like the 750A's have).  Bought one for my son two/three years back.  No purchase regrets on that bike.

I bought one last year that I am getting together for my wife. Easiest bike to get running I have ever worked on.

Awesome! I really look forward to digging into this asap!

I also want to try out the 750K carbs and cam in my 750A to feel the difference.  I can compare that to my brothers stock 750A.  Neither one of us are mechanics but we both like to wrench and learn so a project is always nice to have going.
