About the Honda CM450C
Repair and maintenance parts for the CM450 Custom.
The CM450C Custom pairs Honda’s 447 cc air-cooled twin with a six-speed manual transmission. For an original-specification repair, use the C designation to select carburetor, clutch, brake and suspension parts. The product examples below all include a 1982 CM450C application.
Plan clutch and chassis work separately
A clutch repair may call for steel plates, friction plates or other components; an individual steel plate is only one part of that job. Fork and brake work depend on the chassis components fitted. On a modified Custom, original model identification and the replacement component’s details are both useful.
