Thanks Stray! Those are your stripes on the fuel tank!
[ATTACH] So I did my first real ride today, put 80 miles on the bike. No drama, no weird noises, all good. A couple of observations.. 1. I...
I don't know where I will find it, but there is probably a CB-1 in my future. That stock one you have just astounding to look at. Need to finish...
Looks like the kind of challenge I can get behind! Keep it going!
If i was closer I would take that one on! Probably a money loser though I would have to agree.
Ok, well that is good. $2K seems like OK money for what kind of shape it is in. Splitting the cases may not be that big of a deal, just a pain...
Tomorrow I am finally going to transfer the title and get the bike registered. It has not been legal since 2007! With everything legal I am...
Thanks for finding that. First proof I have seen of the actual octane requirements.
Sorry man, I hope it works out for you. I do not envy a case split job. I had a 84 CB700 SC (same engine) back in the day and had no idea the...

Not too bad.
Nice one....!

No you are not blind, I put the wrong picture up! Trying to edit this now.
Oh, so it's anodized. That makes sense as it was freakin impossible to buff out without serious pressure or use of 200 grit paper. I think I...
I forgot about that trick. Might try that also. This cam cover is pretty nasty. Was underwater for a week or two after a hurricane in 2017.
Next project....trying to restore one of these clear coated alloy parts. Did a bunch of research an now I am armed with all kinds of YouTube BS...
Wow, you paid $450.00? You got a smoking deal on that. Especially since the engine had compression. I never buy the same bike twice but I think...
I checked the K&L supply catalog and they don't even mention that P/N or even the CM450 at all. Hard to believe as that bike was common as nails...
Can't be too many of these around...especially with 28,000 miles!...
