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

THIS is the new Montesa Cota 4RT260 Factory, a sort of BMW HP4 of the trials world. Developed in collaboration with Honda, and the Repsol Montesa Honda Trials team, it’s got a 259cc single-cylinder four-stroke engine designed to compete with smaller two-strokes while producing less emissions. There are two versions, the £5,699 standard 4RT260, aimed at amateur-to-advanced riders, and the more competition-focussed Factory Race Replica version, with Showa suspension, at £6,799.
