Identify your CB450K1 (1968)

This page follows our catalog’s 1968 CB450K1 application. Compare the complete frame and engine markings with documentation for the motorcycle’s original market; registration year or paint colour alone is not enough. A verified frame-and-engine serial range is not provided here.

Use our Honda CB model guide for help locating identifiers.

Confirm K1 and carburetor markings

Carb kit 48-1395 lists the 1968–71 CB450K and carburetor models 14H and 14L. Read the markings on the fitted carburetors before ordering for this K1 collection. A correct frame-year selection does not identify a replacement carburetor fitted by an earlier owner.

Fitment questions

Will replacement coil 17-6923 use the original mounting orientation? Not necessarily. The replacement listing specifies approximately 80mm mounting-hole centres and warns that its wires exit differently from a beige Honda coil. Compare the bracket and lead route before installation; a matching application does not mean the old orientation will work.

Does carb holder 48-1475 include the clamp needed for installation? It includes a gasket, but its description identifies clamp 15-0685 separately when a clamp is needed. Compare the fitted clamp with the replacement holder; a holder-and-gasket listing should not be treated as a complete clamped assembly.
