Just an update: The size, if anyone needs it, is an M12 1.25pitch x 30. I picked one up at the hardware store for about $2 with a washer and it works fine....
I've got a very small oil leak between my valve cover and the head. It just keeps the outside looking a little wet, but no dripping on the concrete or...
Hi all! I'm a proud new owner of a Hawk 82 and I love it. It's been reliable so far (love is growing) and the bike looks fantastic except for the right side...
I'd like to change the oil on my hawk. Can anyone give me a rundown of what I will need (how much oil? What kind of oil filter (can I get it at the Honda...
... Hi Shane. Tonight I'll scan some images from the service manual and give you all the tips you need to properly do this job. It's not hard but definitely...
If all that is bad is the decals, then those can be replaced. I have seen them at www.oldbikebarn.com ... From: Alex_BerLam <alex_berlam@...> Subject:...
Here are two but their both for the left. Maybe if you inquire, one of them will have a right side. And yes, I commute on mine a lot and need storage. I...
Shane, I've uploaded some decent jpegs of the necessary documents here http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/CB450T/files/OilChange/ One common mistake is to...
I bought the rack from the guy here that had one... I had thought you were going to get it... I found a bike here in Houston with the fairing adn the...
I have a question about the amount of oil to put in the bike. In your post you said 2.6 quarts. The specs list 2.6 and 3.2 quarts as the proper amount. Which...
Thanks a bunch! That looks very straight-forward and I'll be sure to use this to good effect next weekend. :) Sometime later this year I'll need to replace...
One amount is with filter being changed, the other is without changing the filter. I find my amounts differ a little bit. i put in 3 if I'm changing the filter...
I use my Hawk for commuting mostly. It's pretty invaluable to me in that way, actually. However, I think I would feel happier on the highways on a bigger, more...
If you walk into a "show-room" you need to know you are going to spend more money than the bike you are buying is worth. I am partial to older bikes, of...
I'm all in favor of twin cylinder bikes. The 4s are all about horsepower and that means high RPMs, so you don't get a very comfortable cruise. I've had a BMW...
The VFR has a great rep and I've heard a lot of good things about it. You might want to wait though because I was just reading that Honda plans on...
I have to agree with BoenTX on the new bike issue. There are a lot of used and slightly used bikes out there that you can pick up for a fraction of the cost of...
I agree with you all about buying used vs. new. Afterall, I bought a 25 year old hawk on ebay! Perhaps I should have been more clear that I was planning on...
Sorry thought you were looking for a new bike.  Lots of great used stuff out there too! Craigslist and ebay are great places to look. I love my Hawk and...
It pains me to even type these words... I may be parting out my 1982 Honda CB450T... I can't find my title and I have three other bikes... I just want to...
Wow, so much despair in these words... If it hurts that much, you should keep it. Can't even imagine parting out with mine. Please don't do anything you will...
Hi All, Â I've just acquired a 450T that I plan to renovate with original parts...As such I will be interested in lots of different parts. Engine is fine, but...
I may be interested in purchasing your entire rear wheel (or at the least the guts of the wheel). The assembly on mine has been "jimmy rigged" for the summer,...
