Honda Rebel cmx 450 Bobber Build

[@maakatipa4613]

The reason it's backfiring is that you need to rejet the carbs after removing the air box and going to the pod filters.

You have done an out standing first build, Love the blue flame paint. Bob

[@sik6dsix]

[@doralee4870]

[@gargantus5]

[@Xxmeca421xX]

I got mine stock. The silver and chrome version and I'm looking for bars now. I wants more of a curved bar because the factory ones are goofy

[@sik6dsix]

Thanks Brandon, good luck on the build!

[@sik6dsix]

Carbs needed jetting. Not sure if it was all because of the mods or if the 20,000 miles had something to do with it too...

[@jusbeats463]

definatly the mods.. what size jet did you go with?

[@Delzgotit]

got the same bike bobbering it out this bike was smoking too bad you sold it she was a beautiful bike

[@RatRaceInk]

Did you have to re-jet your carbs after you put the pod filters on there ?

[@adams13f]

Blocking the vacuum change anything?

[@onemichaelmarsee]

Looks fantastic!

[@lanceh1271]

Awesome..got one I need to post on here too eventually.

[@ChrisJohnson-dl5ip]

[@jusbeats463]

did you need to re jet the carbs after the exaust and air box mods?

How did u replace the cluster gauge? and also the petcock..and airbox? howd u get rid of it and which vacuums you sealed off? thank you

[@sik6dsix]

jo badiola , gauges are the same. switched to a petcock from from a 250 that doesn't require a vacuum. think I used a gold tee to seal it.

[@sik6dsix]

jo badiola , I just took the air box out and installed the filters.

[@jobadiola401]

did u leave the hose that was connected to the airbox? and if i keep the original petcock do i need to plug that vacuum?..

[@sik6dsix]

jo badiola , if I remember correct there was a large hose that remained and I just pointed it down to the street. if you leave the original petcock it does require the vacuum from the cylinder head to operate

[@pjcima8335]

nicely done with exthause

[@lh1678]

nice job.

[@sik6dsix]

Thanks. Think I'm gonna put it up for sale!

[@mckenziekillebrew9076]

we did you get the forward controls from?

[@sik6dsix]

Those are stock 450 controls

[@sik6dsix]

I never got the chance to re jet them, it sold before I could do so. Maybe the new owner will post up the answers!

[@cruiserbrewser]

hardtail it.
