1978 Honda CB

CB550K2106827

Clear

Updated description. Fires right up via kick or electric start. Runs, drives, shifts, brakes properly. Tires are in good shape and wheels are nice and spokes are tight. Clean title in hand. Local pickup or shipping with shipping being buyers responsibility but I will work with your shipper as needed to arrange pickup. This is a nice clean bike with nice chrome and beautiful 4 into 4 OEM exhaust is in excellent condition which is about a thousand dollar value alone. No dents in tank or pipes or tears in seat or cracked or broken side covers. Tank is pretty clean inside as shown. Light rust in certain areas of the bike from normal age but no major rust issues on frame or parts. Fenders are straight with nice chrome and no damage. Maybe a small ding or two. Gauges both work. Clutch is good. The tank does have an imperfection in that the bodywork shows through the paint in one area on the top left side of the tank. I tried to show on the pictures. Looks like it just wasn't sanded completely smooth before paint but paint is nice and has a good shine and is really only noticeable at the right angle. There are no signals on the front of the bike. There was a fairing on it when I bought it that I removed and the mounts were cut in order to accommodate the fairing as seen in photos so it will need new fork sliders or some sort of aftermarket mounts to mount signals on the front. OEM headlight bucket was installed. This bike is an older restoration but still looks great. The bike runs good and tires are good. Turn key ride and enjoy. I hate to sell but running out of room so will be selling off some of the bikes I've collected over the next few months. I buy bikes locally for parts and occasionally run across a beauty like this one. I love them but I can't keep them all. Worth three times the asking price in parts but I love these old bikes and can't bear to tear it down. This is NOT a show bike but is a very nice original 78 model that was not pieces together other than the headlight bucket and rear turn signals which I added. I can store the bike for you until pickup arrangements are made as long as it's paid for in advance. Within reason, a month or two at the most. Storage is inside climate controlled storage. I can be reached at 701-426-4842 with any questions.
