The '''Honda CMX450 "Rebel"''' was a motorcycle manufactured by [[Honda]] for model
years 1986 and 1987. In contrast to the [[Honda CMX250C|Rebel 250 250cc cruiser]], it has a 450cc motor. The introduction of the Rebel 250 and 450 has been cited as a way for
Honda to attract female riders, new to motorcycling, due to these bikes' low
seat heights, low center of gravity, and overall ease of handling;[2] however,
the September 1985 issue of ''Motorcyclist'' magazine, when the Rebel was first
introduced, states "by targeting the bike to a young audience, such as those who
watch MTV, Honda hopes to attract newcomers and expand the motorcycle market ...
Honda is not marketing this motorcycle as a woman's bike".[3] It has a single
disc brake in the front and a drum in the rear. The only gauge is a speedometer
that includes gear recommendations based on speed; there is no tachometer. The
transmission is a standard down-1st, up-2nd to 6th. The 6th speed acts as an
overdrive.
==Engine==
The engine was a Air cooled cooled Four stroke, parallel twin cylinder. SOHC, 3 valve per cylinder. The engine featured a 9.3:1 [[compression ratio]]. 
==Drive==
Power was moderated via the Wet, multi-plate. 
==Chassis==
It came with a 100/90 -18 front [[tire]] and a 140/90 -15 rear tire. Stopping was achieved via Single 240mm discs 2 piston caliper in the front and a 230mm Drum in the rear. The front suspension was a  Center axle fork, 38mm forks, 140mm wheel travel while the rear was equipped with a Dual shocks adjustable spring preload,. The CMX450C Rebel was fitted with a 12 Liters / 3.1 US gal fuel tank. The bike weighed just 174.0 kg / 383.6 lbs. The wheelbase was 1530 mm / 60.2 in long.
