Description

This is a quite a rare machine here because this model was never sold in the UK and was a USA only model as far as I know. This is the 1982 Honda CM450C, where as we only received the CM400. This is a 1982 model, first registered here in 1997 when it was brought over from the USA. It has a current V5C with it and is MOT'd until the 18th of November his year. The bike is tidy, but not mint and is in good working order. It starts on the button and runs well. The main advantages this model had was that it was given a six speed gearbox, which really helps on distance cruising or motorway work as you can maintain a decent speed with much more relaxed revs. Secondly you might notice a little oil cooler at the front bottom of the engine, only fitted on this model, but helps again with engine longevity. here are some specs: https://bikez.com/motorcycles/honda_cm_450_e_1982.php http://www.motorcyclesurvey.com/reviews/honda/cm450_custom/ https://www.cyclechaos.com/wiki/Honda_CM450C So, this is a rare model, top of the Honda CM range in its day and only sold to the USA. It has original exhausts still fitted and all original equipment. The side panels have been badly resprayed at some point, but apart from that the machine is tidy for its age. This machine is on Cat C, as it was stolen recovered several years ago unfortunately. However the bike appears to have been put back to good serviceable condition and runs and rides excellently. In a few years this will be tax and MOT exempt. These machines are rising in value and this example is quite rare with the additional spec for the USA only. No reserve. Viewing is welcome. 07718 593259. Collection is preferred, but I can arrange for delivery within the mainland UK by courier for £ 100, or bring your tin hat and ride this one home. No Paypal or credit cards.
