1982 Honda cm450
2504 miles
excellent condition/museum grade condition

Rear rack and small carrier trunk
Shorty engine case guards with highway pegs not currently on bike
6 speed, which is interesting as this came out around the fuel crisis time, so 6th gear shows as OD - overdrive in the instruments
Original tires with almost no cracking

This bike was purchased by a local fireman who kept it in his climate controlled furniture shop behind his house, with the claim that it was never in the rain or even washed.
When I purchased it, it was covered in saw dust about a 1/2 inch thick which blew off easily. Underneath was a near perfect bike (I say "near perfect" because he mounted a figure on the front fender which you can see in the photos). (OEM fenders, new, are out there for around $45)

The bike starts and runs fine, but I would do a carb service if I was going to drive it. But this bike has been in my office from almost the first day I bought it, as it is close to a museum piece. A part of me hopes that whoever buys it just collects it as it looks as though it was never driven.

Metzeler Z8 wins Motorrad award

Tue, 10 Apr 2012

METZELER'S Z8 Interact sports-touring tyre has been classed as the best wet weather sports-touring tyre by the German Motorrad TestCenter. Metzeler decided to develop new compounds for the Roadtec Z8 Interact precisely to meet these needs, tyres with the specific goal of providing riders not only the most recent technological solutions available in the area of wet performance, but also the possibility of having a tyre with a wide range of use that represents the new standard in terms of performance in any weather conditions, from wet and cold to hot and dry. The criteria considered in the wet test by Motorrad TestCenter have been: steering precision and characteristics, line holding during acceleration, ease of handling, grip at lean angle for front and rear tyres, grip during acceleration, limit range characteristics, feedback at lean angle, braking stability during full braking with ABS.
