Description

 

1977 Honda 550K Four Cafe Racer At the Ace Caf? back in 1950's London there was a powerful fusion of motorbikes and ROCK 'n' ROLL and from this came the legends of record racing. "Drop the coin into the slot" and race to a given point and back before the record finished - thus the Caf? Racer was born. The style of the bikes that are ridden through the whole history of real road racing (Caf? Racer) comes from the Legend bikes of the TT Isle Of Man Road Races. As time has gone by and the legends were passed down through the generations. "Caf? Racers" gained a world wide cult following. The name Caf? Racer. originally referring to the rider. has now come to refer to the style of bike. American bikes have changed and moved away from the real style of the original British styles to the what is more of the Flat Tracker style bike that has no front fender and a shorter flat seat with cut short pipes. This Honda CB550 is the way this bike should be and would have been if in the UK in 1977. It has been finished in the TT Isle of man colours and looks the dog's bollocks. It is in every way the REAL DEAL.   Being from England myself. nbsp;I have been riding motorcycles for over 30 years and road the TT Isle Of Man myself. This bike has low miles for a 37 year old bike. nbsp;and the motor is as strong as the day it came out of the showroom. This is a real TON UP BIKE. It will do over 100mph. and with the 1977 brakes and set up. That is fast as you would want to go. It is great fun and as I have said. NOT modified from what it truly is. A real 1970's iconic bike.
