Exhaust crush gaskets

[Amira]

Hi;

I'm fixing up my CB450 K5. It's in good shape and already converted to a cafe racer. I am rewrapping the exhaust and I'm looking for the exhaust gaskets on line. I find tons of them everywhere but none seem to be made for the CB450 from 1972. All the rings I found were for models '78 and newer.

Any idea where I can find them? I'm wondering if the gaskets from the newer bikes would fit the '72. They look exactly the same as the ones I need (copper, crushable) but I don't know if it's going to work.

Thanks
Amira

honda made a lot of the same parts for different model and year bikes. get the part number and it will cross reference with another year or bike and there ya go!

bikebandit.com shows them and honda should still have them

Thanks. I finally found them at partsnmore.com. Great site with a ton of very inexpensive parts. I got 10 gaskets for 12 bucks!
