Selling my 74 cb450 wilmington,nc

[xtpx]

This bike has a lot of potential but it needs some work on the motor. It needs new rings and a new tranny.

1st and second gear are slipping and compression on the right side is getting weak. If you know how to wrench on these its no biggie.

New parts include:
AGM Battery
Points
Coils
Chain
Sprockets
Brake pads
Carbs rebuilt
Plugs
Tires and tubes
Bobbed fender with retro tail light
Drag pipes and the handle bars

I still have the original seat and the dash

These are pretty rare here in nc but i have a clean title in hand ready to go! Asking $1200 obo

Low ballers welcome send me a pm if interested. It pains me but I don't have time or a place to work on her. I need a long distance runner so I'm looking into a moto guzzi v7 stone.

This bike would be a great winter project. Even with her issues she fires up first kick. Will post video tomorrow.

Do my eyes deceive me, or is the seat a couple of blankets held on with straps?

 

[xtpx]

Hahaha yeah its a Mexican blanket strapped down with some belts I got from the military surplus store down the street

How long did you run it with the headers only?

 

[xtpx]

How about $900 anyone want this thing? Its a running 74 cb450 with a clean title. There's a fresh and complete tranny on eBay for 46 bucks!

Not long maybe 2 weeks

Ever pulled the valve covers and checked what's happening in there?
