Honda CB description

***1974 Honda CB550 Incredible survivor, unrestored, runs and rides perfect, mild patina***

Folks, rarely will you ever see a bike with the original paint and pipes this clean!  All of the chrome still looks decent but could look  better with some professional chrome polishing.  This bike is in incredible survivor condition and runs better than it looks, seriously!  The pipes are almost perfect and still have the original baffles.  They are in great condition because this bike has been RIDDEN often and well maintained!  This incredible machine runs like a Turbine and sounds so awesome  with the note of those four exhaust creating a symphony for your eardrums, it really is exhilarating to drive!  I have all of the original turn signals to go back on the bike and will package them up and send them with the bike of you want them.  The previous owner installed smaller turn signals and they look great so I left them on.

Take a look at the original paint, the pipes, the plush seat, the new tires, and soak up the fact that it could be yours for Christmas.  The Boss Maroon Metallic bikes are VERY hard to find as most people bought the Sunflake Orange version.  I have only ever owned one of these that was cleaner, no actually, that was a CB500.  Again, it does need a little fun-scrubbing here and there but overall this bike is an incredible example of what Honda was making back in the day, just an incredible piece of machinery!  It doesn't really need anything except a rider!  

Call me if you have any questions at 724-866-2571.  My name is Phil

Johnny Depp causes high-speed crash

Fri, 15 Mar 2013

I can understand that seeing Johnny Depp appear from out of nowhere might be distracting to a rider. Obviously not content with damage caused to the Honda in the video above (as a direct result of his on-track presence) Depp gets on the bike to go for a spin then crashes the bike himself. This is despite his previous Harley riding experience and some crystal clear advice about the 'killer clutch'.
