Cb550f or k
« on: August 04, 2023, 06:56:17 PM »
Hi, I'm looking for a cb550F ideally but may accept a K with the concealed filler cap (K3?),  as I want to do a few modifications to it I'm not looking for anything incredibly tidy or concourse, just not rusted to hell or beaten up tank unless cheap enough to justify it.  Let me know what you might have, cheers Dom

Yes I did James, I've found a few gremlins so far but it's a good base.

Nice - I know the seller and he’s a decent guy.

Oh really, I'm happy with it for what I paid for it, do you know any more about its history? Joe seemed like a nice genuine guy.
