FS: Honda cm450 *DOUBLE-POST*

[MenteL]

Alright we got a black/blue-purple honda cm450e.

Bike is awesome for beginner riders, has brand new rubber on it.

The only things that are wrong with it

-Left forkseal
-Cam Chain needs tensioning, an easy 30min-1 hour job, but it's not that serious of an issue
-clutch cable needs replacing (no more than a 20 dollar fix)
-choke cable needs replacing (17.99 @gw cycle)
-smokes when you start it up, no big deal, let it warm up for 10 mins and ride for another 5, the smoking stops.
Because of these repairs and the lack of funds in my bank account, I've lowered the price to $400.

I'm extremely firm on this price, no I will not sell the bike for a penny less.

It has been crashed by the previous owner, only damages retaining from that is a dented gas tank. I lowsided it at 20km/h because of gravel, but the only things i broke were the left front signal light housing, the shifter and the clutch lever. shifter and clutch lever are now replaced. Other than the above mentioned items, the bike is in awesome running condition, and if you think a 450 is slow, i'm 6 feet tall and 220+lb's, the bike has gotten me to almost 170km/h. That's over 100mph, 103/104mph to be exact. The bike is quick, extremely well handling and really grippy.

I cannot stress enough how well this bike is as a training bike. You can crash it and it will get back up and start again ready for your next lesson. If you're looking for something cheap on gas and quick around the city, this is your bike. I pay 8-12 dollar for a tank of gas depending on the gas price and get on average 190-225km to a tank depending on how hard I ride the bike. If you nail on it, it WILL eat gas.

I hope someone snatches this bike up, I really need the money to put insurance on my pickup and start working, so if you want to make an appt to come see it PM me and I will give you my # and my directions.

Here are pictures of my baby.

dont meanto be rude, but your "baby" is a "grandfather", i see paint missing, that bike wont live much longer, and.. nice headlight! anyway, i can only give you 300 cash tell me if you change your mind

That bike will live alot longer. It needs a couple regular items for maintnence and thats it. An old bike will experience its problems, and luckily this one has been maintained pretty good. btw the paint on the engine and what not was done by my dad and i. it will come right off with a good power wash.
