This much sought after 1976 Honda CB550K Four has recently been imported from North America where it has spent all its life – the air is thin and the climate is far kinder to motorcycles than ours. This and the fact it's only showing 11706 miles and has been in dry storage for the last umpteen years have helped maintain its boyish good looks. PLEASE CHECKOUT THE PICTURES. As you can see this bike is very nearly complete missing just the battery & air box lid & filter. The bike has obviously stood a while so the paint is faded. seat cover is torn & front caliper is binding. Sadly the silencers are rotted out at the ends. BUT NOW FOR THE GOOD NEWS. The bike is every bit as nice as it looks here. The wheels are straight - rear has nicechrome rim but front is pitted. good hubs & brake plate. disc. caliper & working master cylinder. Forks & yokes look straight. Mudguards are both solid & tidy. Tail light assy is good as are the headlight & hangers. Indicators are tidy. Instruments & switches look great. Fuel tank is squeaky clean inside. Carburetors are free sliding off the twist grip. Seat base is in good condition throughout. Chain guard is tidy. The engine is cosmetically very clean. it turns over nicely off the kick starter – sounds/feels great & has compression – When we hooked it up to a good battery it spins over off the electricbut doesn't seem to be sparking so we haven't run it up. If you require any further information please give us a call or better still visit our showroom and have a good look over the bike for yourself – after all who are you going to believe me or your own eyes?
