Description
Additional photos of this 1975 Honda CB550 custom are available here for your perusal.
Built between 1974 and 1978, the Honda CB550 was “probably the best balanced Honda of the seventies,” according to this Silodrome recap. They go on to call it a “Goldilocks bike” as it fit in perfectly between the 400 and the 750 – the “CB550 was just right.”
This example is VIN: CB550-1239587, Engine #: CB550F-1077408.
The seller had this bike built for him six years ago by Lossa Engineering.
He states that he has not ridden this motorcycle. True mileage is unknown – the aftermarket odometer shows 304 miles.
Modifications:
Firestone tires, Race Tech shocks.
Dyna ignition with a see through cover.
Uni foam filters.
Aftermarket bars and grips.
Relocated ignition.
Pipe wrap on headers.
Cosmetic Blemishes:
The inside of the tank has rusted out and will need to be lined or the tank will have to be replaced.
It does not currently run and we have not tried to start it.
Currently located at our facility in Santa Monica, California (please make an appointment for an inspection), this Honda is offered on a clean California title which expired in 2018. Estimated back fees if the next owner are $740.
