The rims are original to the bike and have some nicks and scratches. Please note that this bike is not all original. It has parts from several years CB550s. I tried to keep the style of the bike as original as possible while giving it a few modern upgrades for reliability and safety. In addition to the bike, you will also get any leftover CB550 related parts that I have. These Include: Carb main jet kit. New points breaker. Lots of carb stuff (floats, bowls, etc). The old original exhaust header and old non-original muffler that were on the bike when I got it. Another front fender. A second rebuilt seat in good condition but for a CB550 Four. Original pistons. New rings for the original pistons. A set of upper and lower engine cases. Miscellaneous Head parts (valves, springs, etc). Both Haynes and Clymer repair manuals Leftover gaskets and seals from a Vesrah full gasket kit. Don't let the miles fool you. Almost everything on this bike is new or rebuilt!
