$20... make me an offer

I bought this set of stainless bolts a few years ago for a '72 CB450 project that never panned out. Never even opened the plastic package. $25 shipped via priority mail. https://www.dropbox.com/s/m1avwz0tq61ckoa/2014-07-14%2021.16.35%20%28Large%29.jpg...

I dont know if this is the right place for this, but while rebuilding the carbs on the monza, I took this. If anyone wants a bigger size, let me know.

How bad of an idea would it be to use a set of forks from a YZ125 or something like that? Single disk, spoked wheel, I'd have to change the springs and shorten the tubes, but I can have them machined...

I hadn't thought about the lightness aspect, I was thinking more of increased braking power putting more stress on the headstock.

Anyone speak french? :-)

I'm looking at a couple different options for the front end of my CB450, and I'd really like a set of upside down forks with some modern disk brakes. Assuming I can find something that works, would I be stressing the frame too much, especially around the headstock?

Some of you on the east coast might recognize the CB360T from the DC IMS show this year. The owner is very involved with the VJMC in Delaware. The bike was cherry.

Some eye candy of recent bikes I've shot:

Hey everyone I'm coming back after a couple years of being away and focusing on some other bike projects... I keep looking at the poor CB450s sitting sadly in pieces, and the corresponding guilt of unfinished projects is keeping me up at night. Compound that by shooting OTHER people's bikes...

nice collection man! Love the minis. I'm in DC/Alexandria, would love to photograph your collection sometime.

I've been reading http://lecontainer.blogspot.com/ for the last few years and have pulled a LOT of ideas for my CB450 build from there. No words, really, just a collection of photographs from around the web of old cars, old motorcycles, women, architecture, art... Check it out.... maybe not at...

So there are... I hadn't noticed those! AHHHH ok. That wasn't clear in the Clymer book... just a warning not to damage, nick, or scratch the torsion bar. I didn't know the torsion bars were inside those tubes... thought those tubes WERE the torsion bars. Thanks man, they just slid right out...

they look like SV rearsets.... but I could be wrong. I'm probably wrong. ???

'72 Honda CB450. Doing a complete teardown and rebuild of the motor. Got the heads off and am trying to strip them.... except I can't figure out how to remove the torsion bars..... I've taken the camshafts out, opening rockers and pivots are out, the bolts that hold the torsion bars in (on the...

I'm in DC... Finally started on my CB450 build!

Shooter, glad to see you found your way over here from the DML! Schweet bike man. What do you have planned so far?

Ok, so maybe I spoke too soon. I called them again today and ordered a list of stuff from Rob... couldn't ask for a nicer guy. Must have talked to him for 20 minutes (probably why their phone is always busy) about CB stuff after placing my order. Great guy, just need to get a few more phone...
