1976 Honda CB

CB550-1249236

1976 Honda CB550 FourONLY 10,479 ORIGINAL MILES!! I PURCHASED THIS 1976 HONDA CB550 FOUR EARLIER THIS YEAR WITH THE FULL INTENTION OF CONVERTING IT INTO A "CAFE RACER". WITH THE LOW MILES AND THE EXCELLENT CONDITION THAT THIS BIKE IS IN, I DIDN'T HAVE THE HEART TO TEAR INTO IT. I RODE IT A COUPLE HUNDRED MILES THIS SUMMER AND ENJOYED EVERY MINUTE OF IT. I HAVE DECIDED TO NOT TO CAFE THIS BIKE(I BOUGHT ANOTHER THAT IS A MESS THAT I DON'T FEEL BAD ABOUT TEAR UP). IF YOU WOULD LIKE A SWEET BIKE THAT IS A GREAT RUNNER OR A GREAT START TO ANY PROJECT, THIS IS YOUR BIKE. I WOULD ULTIMATELY LIKE SOMEONE TO BUY IT THAT CARES ABOUT ITS ORIGINALITY BUT HONESTLY, YOU PAY ME, YOU DO WHATEVER YOU WANT WITH IT! HISTORY ON THE BIKE: I PURCHASED IT LOCALLY FROM THE SECOND OWNER THAT ACTUALLY KNEW THE FIRST OWNER. HE HADN'T HAD A BIKE IN 20 YEARS AND THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A GREAT FUEL SAVER TO RIDE TO WORK. HE WAS AN OLDER MAN AND HE WASN'T COMFORTABLE RIDING ON THE OPEN ROAD ANYMORE. ON A WHIM I FOUND IT IN THE LOCAL PAPER, GAVE HIM CASH THAT NIGHT AND LOADED HER UP! ITS ALMOST AN UNBELIEVABLE FIND!! I WAS OFFERED $1700 OVER THE SUMMER AND DIDN'T TAKE IT...KICKING MYSELF ON THAT ONE. MY RESERVE ISN'T EVEN CLOSE TO THAT SO DON'T WORRY. CONDITION: EXCELLENT, I WOULD RATE THIS BIKE AN 8 ON A 1-10 SCALE. IT RUNS GREAT! I HAVE A FEELING THE CARBS COULD USE NEW GASKETS, I SEE A DRIP EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE ON THE CASE BUT THATS IT. NO OIL LEAKS. BRAKES WORK AS THEY SHOULD. CLUTCH WORKS AS IT SHOULD. THE TURN SIGNAL BEAPER EVEN WORKS!!! THERE ARE A FEW FLAWS. #1 THE TANK HAS A SMALL SERIES OF SCRATCHES(SEE PIC), NOTHING MAJOR BUT ITS THERE. #2 THE SEAT HAS A SMALL SNAGGED AREA(SEE PIC). #3 THE RIGHT SIDE, SIDE COVER HAS A CRACK IN THE TOP(SEE PIC). OTHER THAN THOSE 3 ITEMS, THE BIKE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. I PUT A NEW BATTERY IN IT 2 MONTHS AGO. THE TIRES ARE IN GREAT SHAPE. PLEASE BID WITH CONFIDENCE. I TRIED TO BE AS HONEST WITH THE CONDITION AS I COULD. YOU ARE WELCOME TO INSPECT PRIOR TO BIDDING. THE WINNING BIDDER WILL BE ASKED TO SECURE WITH A $250 DEPOSIT VIA PAYPAL. THE BALANCE WILL BE DUE UPON PICKING UP OR WITHIN 7 DAYS. I WILL DELIVER FOR 1.25 MILE UP TO 250 MILES IN THE BED OF MY TRUCK. I WILL RESOND TO EMAILS ASAP. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
