Honda CB450 Long Haul Part 5

http://www.common-motor.com/long-haul-part-5

In part 5 of our Long Haul project 1974 Honda CB450 K7 we dig into the front end of the bike. We install tapered roller steering bearings, rebuild the front forks, rebuild the whole front brake (caliper & master cylinder) and install a new front tire.

This vintage Honda is being prepped for a 1,200 plus mile trip from Houston, TX to Lexington, OH to visit the 2018 AMA Vintage Days.
