selling my 550 f2
« on: September 23, 2022, 09:24:30 AM »
Due to lack of use and needing funds for my other project i have decided to sell my 550 f2. It is in decent condition having had lots of money spent over the last few years, see my thread meet my new 550. It has had rebore and valve guides/ head refurb by Trigger, just about run in now, i will do a oil and filter change soon. There are still some areas to improve, the paint on the tank is not great, but would not embarrass you at a bike meet and has the usual honda clutch rattle at tickover. I would like £3,500 for it or near offer, PM me if you want any more details.
Love the 500 and 550 have a 500 called Lazarus under restoration

That’s a nice 550! I would definitely jump at that price if I was on the market for another bike! But not at the moment. Good luck with sale.

If that had been put on here a couple of weeks ago I would have been sorely tempted to buy it - too late I bought my 500 from Bryan - it looks very good value for someone who is looking for one.

I know my 500 will never look close to that without a massive spend.
