The CB450D (also designated CL450K0) was sold in 1967. The 'D' model was formed out of an attempt to move CB450K0 'Black Bombers' that were not selling, sitting on the US dealer showroom floors. Honda produced a dealer installed 'kit' that transformed the standard CB450K0 into the 'D' model. Honda shipped its US dealers a package that included a newly designed tear drop tank (that became the predecessor to the CB450K1 tank), side covers, fenders, tailight, handlebars, special upsewpt exhaust pipes, and a new style seat to complete the transformation of the old 'hump tanked' Black Bomber , which was at the time referred to us the 'ugly duckling', this the reason for the new body work.

It came in three color schemes: silver, orange and blue tank and side covers. The upper forks and headlight shell were black. The fenders were chrome. The two chrome exhaust pipes were upswept one on each side. The "450" side cover decal was on a checkerboard stripe. The engine was a 444cc [[DOHC]] parallel twin with dual CV carburetors. The transmission was a 4-speed. The serial number began CB450-1000001. | ||
