My new 550
« on: August 09, 2014, 04:05:36 PM »
I have bought another project from ebay, its a 550 imported from the USA. I got it as it looked so original and the chrome is all very good, even though it has some bits missing I have some already and the expensive bits are all there. I think I will not restore it, just re-commission   it and keep its patina. I have the NOVA details so will have to go through the registration process, not looking forward to that! I have checked the frame number and it seems to be a K0 model built 5/74 can anyone confirm this? chassis number cb550-1028256
cheers, Mick
Love the 500 and 550 have a 500 called Lazarus under restoration

If the vin plate sez 5/74 then that is what it is mate, you still need a dating letter from Honda though to get the correct year reg
