Description
Honest, original-paint CB550K, owned since 2018. US import, fully UK registered, V5C in my name. Historic vehicle so tax, MOT and ULEZ exempt.
Starts and runs – recommissioned this July after storage, fired on the second press after six years (cold-start video available, happy to start it from cold at a viewing). 22k miles indicated.
Huge amount done in 2019–2020 in my ownership: carbs fully rebuilt, new intake rubbers and manifold seals, new points + strobe timing, valves set, new plugs and caps, new head gasket, complete new front brake (caliper + hoses), new air and fuel filters and hoses. Delkevic stainless 4-into-1 fitted by the previous owner. New battery and fresh oil this month; new spare oil filter included.
Needs to finish the job: tyres (date-expired – priced with that in mind) and carb fine-tuning/ rejet for the aftermarket exhaust – the idle hangs after revving, which is why it's priced as a recommissioning project and not at the much higher price sorted examples make. Seat has a split at the rear seam and some rust inside; rear indicators sit on non-standard brackets; some honest patina – everything not mentioned is original and untouched, nothing hidden, ask for any photo you like. Comes with a proper history file: V5C, Honda dating letter and import papers – plus video of it running in 2020 before storage and this month's cold start.
£2, 650. Viewing in London, collection only (not rideable on these tyres). No swaps, no deposits by message – cash or transfer in person.
