My '84 CB450SC is slowly coming along. Right now, I was hoping to
hear it start to turn over, but alas, just a clicking sound.
Some info:
-Cleaned the tank out, fixed leak, new fuel
- new battery, charged
-was missing starter relay, so found one at the wreckers - however, in
installing it, I have
My first thought is that the click is the relay but the starter isn't
engaging - I would take a stab and say either the engine is stuck or the
starter is bad.
Just my first impulse however.
Are you able to turn the engine over by hand?

Thanks for the reply, Joey. Not sure how to turn the engine over by
hand, but I'll research it and check it out.

I can only find info about turning over car engines by hand, so I'll
need a bit of guidance on this one. Thanks!

Daniel,
Never having done it myself - I am not certain - but I would think
you'd pull off one of the covers on the side of the engine and either be
able to turn it over directly or put a socket on the end of a ratchet and do
it that way.
I have a 450, but I've never torn into the e
Try doing a pop start. If the rear wheel just locks up then the engine
is siezed.

I posted a good wiring diagram to the group some time back that specifically
covered 1983 NH CB550SC and CB650. Search through the group's old messages
but if you can't find it reply and I'll e-mail it again. (It's a PDF File)

Hello Stumpi,
Bikebandit didn't have a schematic of the headlight assembly. However,

To turn it by hand remove the shifter arm (one bolt) and then take all
the 8mm case bolts off the left cover of the engine. This will expose
the flywheel, turn the motor with the center bolt which I believe is a
17 or possibly a 19mm bolt. Make sure it's out of gear or on the
center stand and the
My first response would be that you need to roll your starter over. Put the
bike
in 1st gear and roll it forwards a few feet. This will roll the starter to a
different spot and it may then engage. It sounds like a starter problem to me.

with the spark plugs removed and the bike on the main stand you can
probably just try turning the back wheel with the bike in gear.

Graham is correct! Put the bike up on the center stand, and put the
shifter in second gear (makes engine easier to turn over than when in
first gear; you can even use 3rd gear). If you use 2nd or 3rd gear,
you won't even have to remove the spark plugs; just grab the rear
wheel and pull up (or down;

You must wet the bike with Honda Water then point both probes of a
multimeter at it in a cross like fashion and yell 'Begone Demon Electron'
Repeat until successful.

Are you are using full choke? Did you try holding throttle down all the way
and starting?
I had similar issue and it just took a little longer to start with full
choke.

It also could be the solenoid getting stuck as well - if it didn't even
click, the solenoid isn't moving. Perhaps a tap with a hammer might loosen
it.

So wait, explain that again... You'd start and ride the bike fine, turn it
off. Then you'd come back, turn it on and nothing happens? Then I assume
you'd turn the key off, back on then everything works again?
If so, have you checked to see if you're actually turning the key all the
way off? I've d
I think Graham Is right on the money. Now, just got to figure out why.
it has:
a new starter
a new battery
a new solenoid
Maybe I just need to replace the cables. a problem I had in the past was
dirty contacts but those got cleaned and checked when all this was
happening.
It was very embarrassing
Sounds like Murphy was listening in on your conversation. I hate that guy...

Sigh. no good deed goes unpunished. I sold Noah the oil filter
cradle and bolt off that bike a while ago and tonight the filter bolt

he still has a spare.

fault than the cameras.
