Honda CB description

37,400 miles

Candy Garnet Brown. 

Electronic ignition and kick start work like a champ. 

All lights work and horn works.

This bike will need a front brake caliper rebuild because the brake is sticky but it still works and stops the bike just fine.  The issue is that the brake lever won't spring all the way back out and has slop in it. 

Could probably use a carb clean, or just an adjustment because the bike will hesitate when you hit the throttle, but accelerates just fine after the initial stutter.

Drips a small amount of oil from the pan.

Side panel over battery is cracked.

Small dent on front fender, as well as on chrome guard on the fork, otherwise incredibly nice. 

Some pitting on the chrome here and there such as on the blinkers. 

I put new tires on it last year and they still have the nipples on them. 

New battery last year as well. 

The bike gets compliments all the time, and gets guys reminiscing about how they had a 550 as their first bike, etc.  Great as is, or would be a good start for a custom brat or cafe bike. 

Any questions, just shoot a message.   I will try to post a video or link of the bike running soon.
