1985 Honda CB450SC Nighthawk · Handlebar Buying guide

Start with the grip space and the existing bar ends

Both choices are black rubber replicas listed for this model year, with 7/8-inch handlebar fit and 130mm length. Their distinction is the end design: closed-end grips or open-end grips with plugs included. Those specifications still need comparison with any changed bars or controls.

Use the current controls when checking a changed handlebar

A model application cannot describe every replacement handlebar or control arrangement fitted during the motorcycle’s life. Check the diameter, available grip length and end hardware on the actual assembly. The listed dimensions describe the grips, rather than guaranteeing space around altered controls.

Confirm both-side supply before completing the order

The listings identify the two Honda replacement references, but do not explicitly state the number of grips or side contents supplied. Ask for that information when replacing both sides. Included end plugs are stated for the open-end choice; their exact count is not given.

Ordering questions

Which measurements matter when the original handlebar has been replaced?

Check the actual handlebar diameter and the grip space beside the fitted controls. Both choices specify 7/8-inch fit and 130mm length. Compare the existing end arrangement too; the motorcycle’s year alone cannot describe a changed handlebar assembly.

How do the two designs compare against the original Honda grip references?

Both listings replace Honda 53165-390-780 and 53166-390-780, despite their different end designs. Use those references to check the intended replacement, then choose the finish needed. They are OEM-type replicas, so the description does not identify them as genuine Honda grips.

What should I establish before ordering replacements for both sides?

Confirm how many grips are supplied and which sides the order covers. Neither full listing gives that package detail. The two Honda references and photographs do not settle sold quantity, so obtain the contents confirmation before deciding the order quantity.

Not sure which part you need?

Send your model and year, plus photos of your existing part and any changes to the original setup.
