This is from Dave Quinn, who should certainly know -

"Hagons shocks for CB450 are 310mm or 12.2", the CB750 shocks are 335mm or
13.25"-.........."



The best thing that can be said about stock 450 shocks is that they're removable.
I'm running shocks from an '81 CB750C on my CB450 K4 type.
Works fine, and sort of helped reduce that nose-high attitude the disk brake 450's have.
