The cb450t is in emerson nj

So I went with the 750. It was clean and all original. Just has a much different look than the 82. Will start a build thread soon.

I'm looking at picking up one of the following 2 bikes to start with: 73 Cb750k3 - doesn't run, owner says it needs to be freed up, has been sitting for 25+ years. Looks to be in decent shape otherwise. 82 cb450t hawk - runs and is in good shape. Road worthy as is. I can pick either bike up...

Hello all. I'm a Harley guy that wants to build a cb based cafe racer. My boss is selling a fairly clean 82 cb450T for cheap. After some research this bike was only made for one year. Is this a good bike to start with? Should I be looking at something bigger( I am 6'5 220 lbs) are 750 frames...
