Honda CB450 Cafe Project

[Imola Honda]

Just got my project bike off eBay on Saturday and things have started rolling even though it isn't here yet.

Clubman Bars, DCC Bar End Mirrors and Bridgestone tires have already arrived. Fenders, windshield, milk crate and anything else that doesn't look right will come off once I get the NC State Inspection done. Having the tank and sidecovers painted New Imola Orange (OEM NSX and S2000) at a local body shop. While that's being done I'll spend an evening with a few beers and some nevrdull cleaning up the wheels and engine. Still up in the air about exhaust, seat and gauges.

Very nice 450, sir. Welcome to the site. Make sure to post up pics of your progress.

Thanks Justin. I'm pretty pumped and can't wait to get started. My dad bought a new CB450 back in his college days and can't wait to see the finished product.

Be sure to post up with stuff you want to get rid of, there's a few things in that list I wouldn't mind taking off your hands.
