| Here's my totally original 1975 CB550. I bought it back around 1985 from a family member that decided to sell. |  |
| As it turned out I rarely drove it so it spent most of it's life tucked
away in my basement unused. In 2001 my interest was renewed in motorcycles so
along with a friend we got it out and went through the bike with a fine tooth
comb to make sure everything was in good operating condition. With a new
set of tires a bad wheel bearing replaced, battery, carbs and tank cleaned and the usual tune up and all fluids changed the bike is
absolutely fine. These days I ride it around in the Adirondack region of
New York State. The motorcycle has about 15,000 miles on it and runs and
drives very well. I also own a 1981 and a 1986 Honda Gold Wing. As my friend always says it is hard to beat a Honda. .....Paul |
