Honda CB description

Nice little Honda CB550K model. This is the last year that Honda made the CB550K single overhead cam motor. This bike is in nice condition. The worst part of this bike is the seat, it is in bad shape. I was going to recover it but never found the time to do it. This bike rides great, everything on the bike works. Running lights, headlight, both high and low beams, turn signals front and rear, tail light and both front and rear brake lights. The only problem is that the charging system is weak. It does charge the battery but not as high as it should. At 4000RPM the battery is at 12.9 to 13 volts where it should be around 14 volts. Might be the regulator but have not checked it out. It charges enough to ride it. There is a small dent on the left side of the tank near the rear. The starter button cover is missing but the starter does work. The mufflers have a few holes here and there. I have patched them and they sound good. The bike will have to be picked up here in western Michigan. Any questions let me know.
