About this model

About the Honda CB 450

The Honda CB450 is a classic Japanese parallel twin with a DOHC 444cc engine featuring torsion bar valve springs, which was technically remarkable for its era. The original CB450 (also known as the 'Black Bomber' or 'Dream') was produced from 1965 to 1974 and was at the time the most powerful Japanese production motorcycle. A later reintroduction as the CB450S ran from 1986 to 1988 with a more modern frame and carburettors. Power output is around 32 kW (44 hp).

The CB450 appeals to enthusiasts of classic Japanese motorcycles seeking a reliable, iconic machine for restoration or everyday use. It is sought-after as a collectable on the used market. In period it competed with the Triumph 500 Daytona and BSA A50.

Before you buy

What to check before buying

  • Check the torsion bar valve spring mechanism for condition; this unique system requires specialist knowledge and replacement parts are costly.
  • Inspect the carburettors (CV-type slide units) for wear and degradation of diaphragms and float valves.
  • Examine the frame for rust and weld cracks, particularly on examples that have been stored outdoors.
  • Ask about the ignition system: points-based ignition on older examples requires periodic adjustment.
  • Check the exhaust condition: original two-into-two pipes are rare and often replaced with non-original alternatives.
