Honda CB description

This is a Honda CB550 converted to cafe racer. It has a clear CT title. I purchased it in good running condition but it needed a battery. Since then I have relocated the electrics and purchased a sealed upgraded battery also mounted in the seat. The frame has a fresh powdercoat black on it. The tank is a genuine metal 1960s Ducati although the petcock leaks and needs repair or replacing. The tank lid looks like a NOS ESSO with italian letters. It has original Honda mag wheels and new Metzeler tires. The metal seat is painted to match the tank but there are a couple chips, they probably can be fixed. All lights and electronics worked when I got it. I just relocated the electrics and wiring. It still needs some wiring, mostly soldering. I am busy and haven't had the time. There are a couple small bits of cylinder head cooling fin that were damaged although I still have them and they are repairable. It is a great looking bike but I don't have the time. I will include all items that came the bike when I purchased it. This is for local pickup or buyer arranges shipping.

WSBK 2013: Phillip Island Race Report

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

Max Biaggi who? The Roman Emperor’s retirement after winning the 2012 World Superbike Championship marked the end of an era for Aprilia, with the 2013 campaign marking the first without Biaggi since the Italian manufacturer came back to the WSBK scene with the RSV4. If Aprilia misses its two-time WSBK Champion, it sure didn’t show it with a dominating display at the 2013 season opener in Australia.
