Selling my CB550 Café Racer. To many bikes and cant ride them all. Runs and rides great with tons of upgrades. Paint is new and it looks good but not perfect. I built this bike 3 years ago and has been my daily rider. Mileage is only at 112 cause of new gauges.Old ones had 32K. Top end was rebuilt 3 years ago. Everything works great on the bike and is the best running bike you will see since Ive been tweaking it for years and it even has a custom exhaust that I made to squeeze all the power out. Title in Hand. NO SHIPPING. LOCAL PICKUP ONLY. Thanks for looking

I am selling my 1978 Honda CB550. This classic motorcycle was restored just over two years ago to something close to it's original condition. Exhaust pipes are aftermarket - and were replaced before I purchased it. I bought the bike three years ago, and it was in storage for some time before that. It has been maintained well over the last few years. It now has 24,260 miles on it. The bike is beautiful as is, as a complete restoration project, or for a cafe racer modification. Bike runs great still. I just replaced all of the engine gaskets and most of the O-rings. Cylinders and pistons are in great shape. Engine timing is set. Valves are adjusted. Battery is brand new. Bike comes with well-used maintenance manual. I'm asking $2,200 OBO, willing to negotiate. No deliveries. Seriously inquiries only. Thanks!!

Second owner. Only 8300 ORIGINAL MILES. Very "mild cafe". Parts to turn the bike back to factory are included. I bought this bike a couple years ago from a 70+ year old man who bought it brand new in late 1978/early 1979. This is the SOHC Single Over Head Cam. Last year of it I believe. The original owner rode the bike about 300 miles a year, then cleaned it, waxed it, and put it back away at the end of each season. New tires. Newer battery. ORIGINAL SEAT COVER! Those are worth $500 by themselves. This bike even has the factory yellow paint on the bolts from when it was built! I am including everything in the pictures. The only thing that isn't completely original is the exhaust. The original owner changed to this exhaust in the late 70's. I was able to track down 2 or the original 4 exhaust pipes from a local dealer that had some "take offs" from 1978. If you can find the other 2, this bike would be nearly a museum piece. I've never seen a 550K in this good of condition before. I get attention everywhere I go with this bike. A real head turner! Starts and runs fantastic. Battery charges, brakes work great, carbs have been completely rebuilt and balanced. Video of this bike starting and running. Check out how quickly it starts!! https://youtu.be/a1O_sNYA30s

1978 HONDA CB550K IN GREAT CONDITION READY FOR RESTORATION. Bike does not run! Engine turns fine, gas tank appears to be in very nice shape as well as the chrome. I never attempted to start this bike. This is a very nice complete example ready to be restored. Bike came in from California. The headlamp trim ring has rash, carbs will most probably need to be rebuilt, the front fender is dented on the rear bottom portion, right rear turn signal broke off on the weld and the seat has a tear on the seam on the right side. I can arrange transport at a reasonable rate. I can also assist overseas buyers with export arrangements. Check my other Ebay items for more bikes. Contact Allen 201-248-3818.
