AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Offered with no reserve price:
1986 Honda CMX 450 C Rebel.
A cool custom classic motorcycle, 40 years old (tax-exempt in the Netherlands).
In the early 1980s, cruisers grew hugely in popularity. Honda responded with the Rebel series: the look and relaxed riding position of an American cruiser, combined with Honda’s reliable Japanese engineering. The CMX450C appeared in 1986 as a bigger sibling to the Rebel 250, but was built for only two model years. As a result, the 450 is much less common today.
A great project to get running again; it has been sitting unused for several years.
The engine will start with starting fluid and a booster pack—see video:

The carburetors need cleaning and the battery needs replacing.
Unfortunately, the throttle cable is broken and needs to be replaced.
The inside of the tank still looks clean; see photo.
A great starting point for a hands-on enthusiast!
Papers and key included.
What makes it special is the 447cc parallel twin with two carburetors, four valves per cylinder, and a six-speed gearbox. Rather than being suited only to relaxed riding at low revs, the Rebel 450 is surprisingly lively and enjoys being revved. Its combination of light weight, low seat, and distinctive engine gives it a character that sets it apart from many traditional cruisers of the era. This is precisely what has earned the Rebel 450 a loyal following over the years.
A cool project to bring back to life! A fun starting point with plenty of potential to make your own. Who will give this classic a second life?
The motorcycle has a valid Dutch registration.
Export papers can be requested if desired for €35.
With these papers, you can register it anywhere in Europe.
Supplied with an invoice listing the technical specifications.
No reserve price: it will therefore be sold to the highest bidder.
The motorcycle can be viewed and collected in Winssen (Gelderland), the Netherlands.
We can arrange transport.
Transport is available through a transport company (at the buyer’s expense).

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road.

The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration.
