I currently have a very early US import 550 is too small for me and not enough POWERRRRRR. Was just a thought. perhaps I should look around over winter! Cheers.....sniffle sniffle...

Yes, at a quick glance it does look nice but it's not correct. It seems to have become a trend over the past few years for some people to do a bike up, regardless of if its correct or not, just on the off chance someone may fall for the bling. If that's the sort of bike you're after, then fine but why go to the bother of restoring the engine and then button it up with non standard Allen screws and fit micky mouse clocks and seat, the wrong back end, the wrong colour paint etc, etc ? 🤔🤔🤔. The answer is, it's a cheap fix.
mikal:
Agree.I would have bought it but for the paint. Why the heck didnt the restorer simply paint it in the correct colour for that year. Shirley (sic) that was just as cheap?? Confused.com TY for the replies. I shall wait and see what comes up and treat myself to a cb750 for crimbo.

To the untrained eye looks like a descent bike!! Wrong side cover badges and wing logos. Front tyre fitted against rotation arrow.
Trigger:
you must look past the bling.
Not just the wrong colour but, wrong tank. That tank is for earlier K's
CX 500 tank badges :o
Micky mouse clocks
Tons of wrong bolts and nuts
Escutcheon missing from seat lock
Don't know what seat that is
Missing correct oil pressure switch lead
Wrong air box, from a K1
And i could just go on all night ::)
mikal:
I have forgotten it already....LOL
