I love the redline on that tach.
For sale on the van island for $2000 CAD. It's pretty tempting, but I'm not sure if I want to commit myself to the semi-restoration. I say semi-restoration, because it doesn't look too bad at all.

If you liked that redline you should check out the predecessor, the CB or CL175 - stock redline was 10,500 on a 360° twin

Or the revised redline on my CL450 restomod with MegaCycle cams, same thing
That track is 1/8 mile, and it ran 8.96 at 76 mph. I also took it to the Gainesville 1/4 mile and it ran 14.06 at 90 mph. Both times suffered from poor traction, it had a period-correct Dunlop K70 on the rear then. Doesn't compare well to the 12.40s at 105 that my almost-identically equipped (cams, pistons, carbs, porting) 450 drag bike ran in the early '70s (below), but then that bike was 310 lbs compared to 346 lbs for the current street-legal bike as well as the additional 35 lbs I'm carrying around these days so I don't feel too bad about it.How long was your run and what was the time?
