Through some quick Googling, I came across your site. I think I am going to thoroughly enjoy popping in here over and over again!
I just stumbled upon a 1970 Honda CB450 as my first bike…It was too hard to resist…From the photos it looks solid enough for me to want to dive in as a restoration/learning experience.
Best yet, it was only a minor investment to me…$100 US dollars current owner just wanted it gone. I am going into it knowing that it might be stressful, challenging, and might not ever work for me….but at $100 bucks i couldn’t hold back.
I’ll pick it up this weekend and am anxious to start working on it.
I was wondering, who are your favorite parts resources for old Honda’s? I am looking at starting by grabbing the Clymer published maintenance guide/repair guide for this particular bike.
Any advice for a noobie would be incredible.
Cheers,

Hi James,
I used to have a long list of my favorite vendors on my blog – I forget what I did with it!!
I love:
– crc2onlinecatalog.com
– partsnmore.com
– oldbikebarn.com
There are many others, but those three are a good start for you.
