...parked on campus:

Honda CB450 K1 model, I think

Triumph Tiger 750, yes, still with the brake and shifter reversed by most standards.

I sold the '66 version of the Honda CB450 to dafstar. She may still own it.

I do actually, I have all the parts, but I haven't had enough cash to do it right, so I am waiting.I have to have the gas tank (inside) sanded)because of the gas that was in it.And new gaslines, and new electrical harness, new shocks, new tires new gaskets and rings.and probably remachining the pistons and getting them calibrated.all that sort of needs to happen all at once :(
I still love that bike, and everytime I have been desperate for cash I look at it, but it would be selling off a dream of mine and I can't do it.

If you ever decide to sell it, tell me first.

You bet, Ill keep it in the family if i decide to.

yeah, this definitely isn't the '66 "K0" model; it doesn't have the really funky tank. I think it might be a K3; I got a peek at the serial number and the next digit after CB450- is a 3...
