Picked this up to use for parts but I found I only needed the upper tripple clamp and I think its too nice to part out. It turns free and looks like it could run but who knows, would be a good project bike or parts bike. No title but is out of dmv so title should be easy. looking for 350.00 for...

I am putting new rings in my cb450 and when I took the old ones off they were busted up really bad. The new ones are confusing me on how to install. There are 5 parts for each piston in the new kit. 2 bigger rings that have a TOP marked on them so they get put in right side up, and then 2 very...

I broke my top tree while tightening the lock bolt, anybody have one?

Lost interest in my project and want to move on. I have a 69 cl450 the frame is bead blasted and cut up for a cafe build, the motor ran good when I pulled it out, but the cam sprocket has some wear and I was told to replace one cam that has the sprocket wear. all the aluminum on the engine was...

I took the covers off my cl450 engine to polish them and when I put them back on one of the intake valves sticks open untill the cylinder comes up and pushes it closed. I have not run the motor only turned it over by hand. I think i bent a valve putting the cover that holds the cam back on, is...

I was taking the covers off my cl450 motor to polish and when I took the head cover off on the exhaust side I found a broken black plastic ring about 2 inches around and about an 1/8th inch thick, does anyone know what it is? I also had the covers from the sides of the motor that hold the cam...

I was always planning on using some rearsets on the passenger peg mounts on my cl450 but now that the tank and seat cowl are done and I am siting on the bike it seems that the stock location is good enough. I am 200 lbs and 6 foot 3 inches tall, does being tall make it more or less necessary for...

I just got my rear hoop for my frame mocked up and I am thinking that the seat for this bike is going to be a challenge. The cl tank is shorter than the cb tank so the seat is going to be longer than I would like and it is going to have an ugly turn up at the front of the seat to meet the tank...

I just got a cb450 front end to put on my cl450. I wanted to use clip-ons and the cl450 front end had fork tubes that are tapered at the top so they had to go. my question is how do I center the wheel in the new forks? I am trying to use my 19 inch drum front wheel on the cb450 forks that are...

I am looking at a set of cb450 forks for my cl450, I want non tapered forks so I can lower the front a bit and so I can use clipons. I found a set of 72 cb450 forks cheap but they are for disk brakes.... the guy selling them seems to know his stuff and said I could mount the 19 inch drum front...

Hello, I just took apart the front end of my 69 cl450. I was hoping I could slide the tubes up above the top tree a bit to lower the front down a bit. When I started taking it apart it looks like the top of the fork tube stops inside the top tree and is too large to slide thru the tree, I did a...
