Yeah I know, wrong forum to be looking for a vintage honda but my search has not been going well so I'm posting here in case someone has something kicking around in the back yard or something.
I'm looking for a '72 Honda CB450 K5 twin. These can be identified by a serial (vin) # with the format CB450-5########. Specifically I'm looking for something in rough shape to serve as a platform for a restomod project I want to start up on. My offering price will be based on how complete the bike is and it's condition but basically if you are asking more than $500, I'm not interested. You must be willing to ship the bike unless you happen to be within a couple hours drive of Missoula MT. You guys know I've been around here for a while so the shipping requirement isn't my attempt to scam you, just that I don't have the ability to drive real far out for a pick up right now. Obviously shipping arrangements and cost will be my problem.
Who's got something for me?

just sold my 2 '72 CL350's for $350 a few months back

good luck to you on your search.

seems there are hundreds of these bikes out there but everyone wants a cafe racer now and these are a cheap good platform for that so they get snatched up quick.

Bump, anyone? It is simply mind boggling that k4's and k6's are everywhere but the K5 seems to have become something of a unicorn.

Try posting on the SOHC4 forum. Some of the guys have multiple Hondas.
