These two guys are doing a wonderful service to the motorcycle community! Tell a friend! Vintage bikes rule, and you will not get a better window into Zen and motorcycle maintenance than with Brick House Builds
My first bike was a 74 CB450, I rode it for six and a half years, in that time I think I made every repair possible on that bike. But I still loved it! It was a peg dragger that I loved riding in the WV mountains.
You brought back to life and joyful use the exact model bike my good buddy and I rode to McDonnell Douglas to build MD80 jetliners. I rode a '75 550F. Years and years we rode to the hanger and shot frames of jets together. The bikes were as durable as the jets! Thanks Guys!
I did a 3 year open checkbook bare metal restoration of my CB450K5 and have been enjoying it for the last 7 years. There are some quirks about the 450's electrical system. From the factory there is no regulator on this bike and the charging system when new was only good for 110 watts. Honda set up the charging system with a two step generator. One side was for when the headlight was turned off and the other was for when the headlight was on. If the regulator rectifier is replaced with a modern unit it must be designed for this system. The charging system will not put out full wattage (volts) until 3,000 rpm. With the headlight off and 3K you should see 13.7 volts. Headlight on 14.5 The headlight switch connects the two sides of the charging circuit. Some guys connect these together outside of the switch to leave the charging on full all the time. This will cook the battery if the headlight is left off for any length of time. Next is the light bulb wattage. The original headlight uses a low wattage bulb and the tail light is the 20 watt version of the dual filament bulb. Check your owners manual for your bulb numbers and wattages. My solution was to use a '80-'84 GL1100 headlight with a LED H4 bulb and a LED tail light. The BL headlight fits the stock CB450 headlight. Next is the chain. The CB/CL450K bikes use a 530 chain. I 530 o-ring chain will not fit and chew up the inside of the engine cases. Don't do it. You will ruin the engine. It was hard for ne to tell, but it looks like that was an o-ring chain. Good luck with this bike, I love my 450. I have three other bikes, an '81 GL1100 standard under going restoration. A '85 GL1200 Interstate. This bike has been fully restored and has been my daily driver for the last four years. It is for sale on the Seattle Craigslist. I just bought a 2005 GL1800. It is the new daily driver (OH YEA).
The secondary side of the alternator is triggered in the headlight switch if I remember correctly. Can be confusing while troubleshooting. I think the alternator current is rectified but not regulated. The battery serves as a reservoir for excess current up to a point. The difference in charging requirements with the headlight requires the two stage system. Tying the charging coils together can work if a proper regulator is added...... The number of different designs of charging systems used in this era by Honda is mind blowing.
This turned out really nice. I have used aerosol hair spray to install grips, spray it down and quickly slide it on. It stays in place when dry but you can still get them off with compressed air.
Thanks for sharing this video of this 450 Honda DOHC its identical to the one my dear friend owned. Donny bought it new in 1974. I had a CB350 I bought new in 1973. My first bike. I've had a total of four bikes since 1973. All Hondas. My present bike is a VTX 1300. Love Honda. Loved watching the video. I wish I could afford to buy this 450. brings back many memories. I hope the next new owner geta miles and smiles of enjoyment from it. Thanks again this video made my day! Mike
Just bought a '72 with only 6K miles on it. It's in very nice shape. Fuel tank clean on the inside, seat looks like new, minor appropriate patina elsewhere. I'm waiting for a few spare hours to freshen up the ignition system, then it's hopefully on the road!
My first road bike was a Honda CB 200, great first bike ,kept it for 3 years, traded it in for a Yamaha 125 scrambler and had great times with that. Enjoy watching your bike adventures.
I never had been a fan of the smaller Honda's but you guys are starting to convince me different. Great looking little compact motorcycle. Good work fellas. On to the next project hey.
The reason so many mufflers eventually rusted out was because the Honda's burned so little oil, a problem that didn't effect British bikes..... Periodically adding a bit of oil to the gas can help prevent this.
Great vlog you Guy's, I've found in the past all you need for your charging system to fail is the slightest amount of oxide on one of your connectors & what a great bike to work on without all the modern crap to deal with!!! 👌👍
Nice job! I saw your cb500t for sale on facebook and came to watch this video. I'm over here in Springfield and I have a couple CB750s I like to modify. Maybe someday I'll take the pilgrimage over to your shop lol
This cafe racer I saw had a sort of “old bones” engine and frame and even wheels but new tires and and seat and tank, etc. o thought it was a super cool look. It made me think of Badlands
Great video guys .dont want to sound like a saddo but the rolling feel to the content is spot on .its real is what we all try to do .get things done figure things out .problems solutions .thanks from not so warm scotland 🏴🏴
Man, when I think of what a motorcycle IS = I picture a long seat that 2 people can sit on & long sweeping exhausts. The gas tank never stuck up between you & the triple tree. I used to deliver pizza on a Honda 360 & it was great in town...good pep & mileage but in the late 60's/early 70's I saw a Honda 750four. A friend of my mom/dad's let me revv that bike up & it's been w/ me forever!! Thanks for the walk down memory lane. peace

No kidding, I moved to Webster Groves in 1976..... left in Aug 80 for Texas but I spent my highschool years,two of them in Webster before finishing the last 2 in Afton. Haven't been back since but you aren't too far from me in Dallas & if the money gets straight & you have a bike, I'd gladly come visit you guys. Thanks man, I appreciate. peace
Nice work! Another great bike returned from the dead. Let's hope it gets ridden as its makers intended. I flipped a number of Hondas back in the day, and bad rectifiers were a frequent cause of the bikes being parked. Batteries don't charge, bike won't start, it gets parked. However.....Honda released a service bulletin (this was a long time ago) stating that most warranty 'electrical problems' were the result of bad batteries.
You can buy thin steel strips to rivet on the seat base that has the little tangs all along it to solve the issue you had there with them snapping off..
Brilliant work guys amazing bikes and sounds great must admit Seth did warm it up to you starting it BJ lol ,these moments always seem to happen when you let someone else try right 😂😂 bike looks great and off to a good home ,knocking it out the park you two keep,up the great work take care and all the best 👌👍🔧🔧🔧🔧🏁🏁🏍️🏍️❤️
Saw the first cafe racer in my life today. Pretty cool but he rode off before I could pick his ear. I think it was an older triumph but not sure. I was digging it, though
Good to Seth hard at work. The Regular Rectifiers on Honda's always seemed to be problem. My two Honda VFR 750\800's both had issues with Reg rectifiers.
@@BrickHouseBuilds Yep, they're so bad, that a mate of mine told me to carry a spare and when you replace it; put a base-plate between the chassis and the Reg/Rectifier.
Great video as always. BJ, please do another ride video with your CB750. I sometimes go back and watch the older ones and they are so cool to watch. I mean, that's what its all about, right?
Awsome bike and a lot better looking now after your fix. Any tips of how i can get rid of some rust dots on my forks ? I wish to change my seals to because of all oil leaks out when im out on a ride. But Im worrying because of The rust Will destroy The seals.
Great video lads.... But.... how about some vintage Suzuki's on the channel....I have just bought, as part of my mid life chrisi's A 1975 Suzuki GT 250 M, Ironically a US import, 40 years dry storage, just done the carbs today with overhaul kits and they were very clean... keep em comin Alan C. UK
I have a gn400 build I've shown, a gs550 revival, and a gs450 scrambler build I've shown actually. Soon I hope to start on a gs550 build I have in the works
I was cock-of-the-walk on my '68 A7 Avenger until I did a coastal run with an acquaintance who had just bought a '69 CB450. There was simply no comparison; the Honda ate the Kawasaki in every way - power, comfort, economy, braking and handling - ah, choices!
Hey guys, game across your video. I love the 450 such a cool style bike had a few back in the day. I have a question maybe you guys could answer for me. I picked up a 75 cb500t I'm having issues with charging system. Is it only 2 points on wiring harness that I'm looking for ohms, to check if stator is good. Pink to Yellow 1.1 ohms and Pink to Yellow 5.5 ohms. Do you also look for a reading on Yellow to white. Are the reading ingredients for ohms on the stator the same for my cb500t. Anything else I could check if stator turns out good. Is there a way to check what you replace rectifier and regulator. And you purchased that on Amazon, thank you if you could lead me in right direction
There is a dead short somewhere. It could be in the indicator circuit but I doubt that in fact. I notice you are not using the electric start, slipping starter clutch? There is rather a few kilometres of wire in use on the electrically controlled motorcycle. Need to find continuity between the positive wires and ground. Also check the earth connections to frame and engine are in great condition. It's about fifty ow so wire may be breaking down in a circuit?
There was no short it was just a lack of available power to run both the signals as well as ignition. In the first video I show the electric start and how the motor is just a bit slow. Doesn't want to start the bike when cold. The motor could use a rebuild but I wasn't concerned about it
My RD400 is salivating at the prospect for a race. She's all fired up and ready for a conflagration vs. a Honda. Any Honda pre 1979...Where have all the Hondogs gone? Gone to scrapyards 'n barns....Where have all the Hondogs gone? Tarps for everyone. Why is it I have my personal two strokes with a combined 220 years of personal service and there's nary a dorky CB350 to be seen?
Hey Seth, was wondering why you didn’t clean up that mount and bolts before putting the regulator back on? If I were a guessing man I think BJ would have cleaned and painted that stuff 🤷🏼 informative video though 👍🏻
@robertcraft-pj2jp this video was about selling this bike so yes. I always have the current bikes for sale on my Facebook page in my "bikes for sale" photo album
@@BrickHouseBuilds It’s all good. I know everyone on here is probably bugging you about it. It’s one of every vintage bike enthusiasts dream bikes, and there is no one better but you to restore it and get it dialed. Just cant wait to see it eventually
I watched most of this on my phone in a Wal Mart parking lot and Subway sandwich. I think I got a comment in. Anyway. I thought this was all about the other 450. For some reason I knew you had two of these around. But then did you sell a 450 like a month ago? So confusing. And now the new "older" or "newer" 450 ~ whatever ~ doesn't have a seat or the stock pipes??? Now I feel bad about that 450. Maybe now the newer, older 450 will get a new old seat too but no black electric tape. Right? Help me here. Please. 😜
No we didn't sell a 450 a month ago. We recently bought 8 bikes, one of which was a 450 that we used parts from. That bike is already sold as well. I do have a cb500 still I wanted to build but it is also for sale
Does that bike not have an electric start? They came with an electric start Electric start or not, someone got a good deal. For that price, having all that work done...that's not usually how it works. Normally it'll need a lot of that stuff done to it when you buy it for that price.
I am a glutton for punishment. I am more of a purest and do what I can to keep things as it came frome the factory, but I do admit, I often ask my self " Why not convert it all and be done"...... LOL! Working on vintage bikes and cars is kind of like my Anti technology therapy........

@@BrickHouseBuilds okay thanks
But you never showed the keychain.
or the pictures of the 450 triplets :/
@trinas7131 well to be fair I haven't received the 450 pics yet myself. This was very recent
@wmonkey4834 I definitely should have lol. Didn't want to promote a cheap item but yes, should have shown it like I said
I definitely like your videos
How can I get one of your builds?
My current XS400 build will be for sale likely in November
@@BrickHouseBuilds- for how much?
@@jimbooth324 10k range
I thought you said a friend was buying the other CB450?
Correct, it's already gone
I keep seeing that CBX in the background teasing me, bro, when are you going to get back on that one? Still waiting for machine work?
I'm sorry, it's just complicated
@@BrickHouseBuilds It’s all good. I know everyone on here is probably bugging you about it. It’s one of every vintage bike enthusiasts dream bikes, and there is no one better but you to restore it and get it dialed. Just cant wait to see it eventually
I watched most of this on my phone in a Wal Mart parking lot and Subway sandwich. I think I got a comment in. Anyway. I thought this was all about the other 450. For some reason I knew you had two of these around. But then did you sell a 450 like a month ago? So confusing. And now the new "older" or "newer" 450 ~ whatever ~ doesn't have a seat or the stock pipes??? Now I feel bad about that 450. Maybe now the newer, older 450 will get a new old seat too but no black electric tape. Right? Help me here. Please. 😜
No we didn't sell a 450 a month ago. We recently bought 8 bikes, one of which was a 450 that we used parts from. That bike is already sold as well. I do have a cb500 still I wanted to build but it is also for sale
@@BrickHouseBuilds Ok Ok Ok... Got it. Thank you so much for sharing all that you do!
👏👌😎🇧🇻
Does that bike not have an electric start? They came with an electric start
Electric start or not, someone got a good deal. For that price, having all that work done...that's not usually how it works. Normally it'll need a lot of that stuff done to it when you buy it for that price.
Yes it does, I've shown it in the previous video. It's just a bit slow and won't start the bike when cold as the starter needs a rebuild
What was this bike sold for?
@@jimbooth324 just 2500
@@BrickHouseBuilds - great deal 👍😀
I am a glutton for punishment. I am more of a purest and do what I can to keep things as it came frome the factory, but I do admit, I often ask my self " Why not convert it all and be done"...... LOL! Working on vintage bikes and cars is kind of like my Anti technology therapy........
Definitely find myself on both sides of the fence too
cool bike but one of the worst bikes Honda ever made
I can't fathom how it could ever be thought of in that way lol
