1982 Honda CM450 Custom review from United States of America
"A great bike... buy one.."
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
No problems so far.
General comments?
I just got this bike 8-9 days ago due to a minor problem with my left foot. This is the CM450A. It has a semi auto trans. Only hi and a low gear with no clutch. It takes almost no shifting to ride this cycle. I have owned MANY motorcycles (and still do), but shifting has become a problem.
This Honda is a great bike. It is good around town and on the highway as well. This motor is known to run forever, and has plenty of power to keep up with the other traffic.
I thought about a big scooter, but I'm very glad I went this way. If shifting is a problem for you, this is a good cheap way to keep riding.
