The Mule - 1968 CL450. Made for usin'

[Whitey80]

Made to enjoy Colorado. All the pavement, all the dirt and washouts, minetrails and singletracks. Over 8000 miles of vistas, ghost towns, mountain tops and just gettin' to work since completion 6 months ago. After all the cafe's and trackers I've finished, the parade of late model sportbikes and such, this is my favorite moto I've ever owned, without doubt.

Found in an old timer's barn in a small mountain town about 50 miles away. Pistons seized since 1985 and missing more than half her parts, but worth the trip up the hill.

I have one sitting in the garage all stripped down, it was going to get the full cafe treatment. Having just seen yours I realize how great the stock bike looks. It would be wonderful to explore some trails and gravel back roads. Is that an ammo box on the side, I would love to see how you mounted it. The bike looks great!

mighty fine moto, after seeing it in person even more impressive. Thing is a bute and the builder, altho sometimes rather dickish, knows what he is doing. hats off banger of fingers.
