I like that 450 of Larry's because it looks a bit like a CB750. If you could just pull that rattly boat anchor of an engine out and install an SOHC4 in there, it'd be a truly impressive bike! ;D

You do it to yourself.

The 450 is more efficient than the 750 SOHC. Fact.

Very impressive, Larry!   I've always liked the 450 side cover badge for some reason.

So's the C50. Fukt. ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"
