    So this is a pic of the sprocket those ebay stores think will fit my bike.......but from the looks of it, all the bolt holes seem to be in the wrong place. None line up directly opposite from another, so i doubt that it's going to fit......here's a pic.....thoughts?

    So.... the bike!!!! It's a 1970 CB450 K3 that was imported to Australia from the US in September. I have next to no history on it unfortunately. There is an old rego sticker on it from the 70's from Georgia, but apart from that there's basically no info on it. If there are any people reading...

    Hey guys, this is my first ever post so please be gentle. Just moved to Newcastle and am already pretty impressed by the local motorcycle community and workshops. Not sure if any of you have heard of it yet, but there's a new shop called Wickham Motorcycle co. Kind of like a...
