90's kid here, my dad has 2 of these cl450s, I have fond memories riding on the back with him, mostly surface streets and short highway rides. The sound is embedded in my memory. He has a red one and bought a blue parts bike but the parts bike and the red one ended up being restored. These are super rare I've never seen one on the road other than my dads bikes.
When I was a teen a friend and I used to ride on a old dirt road not used for traffic anymore. I would ride the CL450 and sometimes for fun the Trail 70. He would ride the CL450 or the Yamaha Virago 750.
Had this exact bike back in the day. Crashed it racing a Suzuki RE5. Rode it jacked up for the rest of the summer as it was my only transportation. Bulletproof bike.
Very nice brother. When I was 14 years old my uncle had a Honda 305 scrambler sitting in his garage. Was going to scrap it I said could I have it he said if you can get it running you can take it. So I did that bike was awesome.
73 cl450 scrambler was my first bike i bought it when i was 17 years old paid $500 for it in 1985 the bike was as clean as you see this one then took a day in the rain riding it around the back streets to learn how to ride it a week later when i got my tags i rode it from philladelphia to the Pocono mountains then all the way to atalntic city in one day..

Greetings from a 60 year old Vermonter. Thanks for helping to preserve these old classics. These are the the motorcycles of by youth.
Beautiful classic Honda Ken. That scrambler 450 is snappy and pretty fast for its size.
That bike was the first BIKE I ever rode on at 6 or 7 I sat on the tank in front of my dad holding onto middle bar. Grew up loving honda motorcycles.
Always dug the scrambler style pipes. Man she sounds crisp Ken.
That Blue Paint Job Is Stunning!
My first bike was a 1969 cl 350. I loved that bike. At 6000 r.p.m's I was at 60 m.p.h.
When I was young I’d wait for my big brother to give me a ride on his 72 cl 350.. I rode it when I was 18 he still owns it.. pretty cool to see.
one of many Honda Bikes I owned. Great memory.
You meet the nicest people on a Honda 👍👍
The 350 was a good motor to. It was very popular in the day. I saw many CB-350’s
If only the new cl500 looked this good!

Gorgeous bike Ken, I would love it!

I’ve got a ‘71 it’s the most fun, comfy classic. Just a great way to cruise around with fun power on tap too.
LOVE everything about that model!
