OK, here's the deal. I ran a Honda repair shop from 1967-71 outside SF. I obviously was young then. The 68 CL450 was by far my favorite bike . So I got very good and rebuilding them etc. Now I'm in my 60's and do about 2 of these a winter and maybe a CL77 (305), that are restorations of value from 1800-3500. Many on Ebay. Actually all were sold on Ebay. So I always wanted to keep one, build one the way I wanted for my self but, could not afford to keep. I saved the 68 CL tank, seat and side covers just for me to use until the bike I was selling sold. This bike I built from many of the best parts from the last 4 years. The frame was powder coated by another that was in the process and it's really a CB, IE the Serial #. New, old style front fender, complete rebuild with valves done along with rings and gaskets etc. Electric starter works great, new tires, new battery,levers, and much more new as well. Kept the old vintage electrical, saved the best headlight bucket and such. I've had it running for about 4 mos. now and the last picture shows how I've treated her. Under cover's in the Garage. Even the License plate holder is yellow CL450. The only bad thing is the tank's paint right around the neck was spoiled with gas before it might have been dry? Didn't notice before it was too late. Don't have time now to re paint, the boat business is crazy good and that's what I'm best with. The color is 1968 Corvette Yellow, so the paint can be matched easily. This time because I now realize that I'm not going to really ride like I thought, I'm letting the tank, seat and cover's go with this bike. Hate to let this go, won't run across this nice of equipment in my price range again. I know you or I can buy here an original 68 for around 4-5K then have work to do still. So this might be an option to those who want nice but, don't need all the nos. to match. Write with any questions before bidding. Clean title here in Wa. in my name. Buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements and costs, but, I'll help in easier delivery to the Seattle area or ? Will gladly paint another tank and side cover's your colors, I would love to keep this set.Obviously this won't be released until the funds are in my bank account and cannot be stolen. Do not bid if you're not serious, I will cancell all that do with under 20 purchases unless we write first. Been burned by rookies here once, won't happen again. Good luck, have fun!
