The Appeal
The Honda CB550 K1 represents one of the most balanced and rideable classics from Honda's legendary CB series. Offering a middle ground between the smaller 350/400 models and the flagship CB750, the 550 delivers an engaging riding experience with more manageable proportions and weight - and is generally regarded as amongst the most refined of its era.
Purchased as a restoration project from respected UK dealer DK Motorcycles in September 2023, this CB550 has been meticulously brought back to its factory appearance. With verified frame and engine numbers, factory-standard mechanical overhaul, and those increasingly rare original exhausts, this is a fabulous opportunity - don't let it pass you by!
