The '''Honda CL450''' was a [[Four stroke|4-stroke]] 450cc motorcycle built by [[Honda]] between 1967 and 1974. The CL designation indicated this model to be the "Scrambler" version which implied some off-road capability prior to actual dirt-bikes gaining popularity. The CL series of bikes were actually street bikes with a higher rear fender, a braced handlebar, and a high-mount exhaust.
==History==
The sister bike to the [[Honda CB450]], the CL450 is the dual sport or "scrambler" model of Honda's 444cc [[DOHC]] parallel twin engined motorcycle.  Although the difference between both models are mostly cosmetic, the CL450's higher pipes, knobby tires, and aggressive styling were better suited for off-road riding.
