A 1971 Honda CB450 has undergone an extensive overhaul, characterized by a truncated rear section, bold new bodywork featuring striking military-inspired decals on the tank, and diverse component substitutions that reimagine its original design. The modification package features a newly designed seat, revised handlebar, a fresh right-side mirror, upgraded entrance brake master cylinder, reconfigured hand controls, rear-shifted foot controls, tasteful copper accents, a high-performance aftermarket speedometer, and enhanced Progressive Suspension rear shocks.
With its rich green bodywork, punctuated by army star graphics on the gas tank, the motorcycle’s aesthetic is bolstered by the addition of a headlight guard, rear-set foot controls, integrated rear flip alert system, and a sumptuous brown-upholstered aftermarket seat featuring sleek black piping. The stanchion of the correct-side fork features a sleek, elongated mirror, accommodating optional handlebar-mounted mirrors within its cleverly designed management modules.
The addition of black wire-spoke wheels paired with Shinko SR712 tires in a 110/90-19 configuration for the front and 120/90-18 setup at the rear significantly elevates the motorcycle’s visual appeal. The braking system boasts an entry-level disc and rear drum configuration, coupled with an auxiliary master cylinder, high-performance braided stainless steel brake hoses, and a durable copper-reinforced rear brake linkage. A sleek telescopic fork boasts green-finished legs, earning an official seal of approval, while Progressive Suspension shocks expertly support the rear.
The 444cc parallel twin engine has been refinished in a sleek black finish, boasting a range of premium features including an electrical starter, kick starter, Keihin carburetors, NGK-branded plug boots, and a two-into-two exhaust system with wrapped header pipes and copper mufflers. Energy is efficiently transmitted through a sophisticated five-speed transmission and a reliable drive chain to the rear wheel.
