I had planned to wait on this but noticed a few posts looking for CB450K1 parts here. I recently acquired a 1968 CB450 K1 in red. It's mostly there but sat up outside. Has quite a bit of rust. The header pipes are good, one muffler looked good till I got it off and the bottom was rusted. I have the gas tank off now and its rusty and full of crud. some pinholes but it's mostly there and dent free. I had planned to pull parts, clean them up and list them on ebay, but if you guys have a list of stuff you are looking for I will try to prioritize what I pull off to clean up. I had planned to restore this bike myself, but upon closer inspection it would be too much of a money pit for me to do at this time. I also picked up a CB750 and GL1000 that are in much better condition I'd rather drop my limited free cash into. Any proceeds from the sale of these parts would go into that. I'll also have to warn people I am slow to getting around to stuff. I was healthy and care free till I hit 45 a year or so ago and all the sudden I got IBS. It has put a real damper on my life and its hard for me to tell when I'll be feeling up to doing anything these days as it heavily depends on if my IBS is flaring up. All those years I was worried about cancer and heart attacks and it appears I will meet my end by pooping to death. lol
