Okay Mike, I give up. How in the world did you have a "46" Honda CB450 when as far as I remember the first Black Bombers(which as far I also remember were in first CB450s) weren't made until around the mid-1960s???

(and folks...according to Mike's PM to me he stated that that "46" o' his was NOT a typo and then told me to "figure it out, Grasshopper"!!!)
Now, my first M/C was also a Honda, but quite a bit smaller than that CB450 of yours, which I would have really liked to have owned back then but couldn't afford. However, now that I really remember back to those "salad days" o' mine, I recall liking the CL450 Scramblers a little bit more. Scramblers were all the rage back then, ya know! But my third M/C was a used CL72 Scrambler, very similar to the one posted by Tony above, but it was a 250cc and not a 305cc.
Oh, I almost forgot...My first bike was a Honda CL50, bought when I was 15 y/o. That was the little sucker which "infected" me with this lifelong "motocycle bug" still coursing through these likely much more hardened arteries o' mine nowdays!
