SOHC.co.uk Forums > CB500/550
A big thank you!
Orcade-Ian:
Well folks,
I would just like to say a very sincere thanks to the wonderful folk on this Forum and especially to Steve D for making it all happen. I wouldn't have become the next custodian of this lovely 550 or almost all of the parts needed to get it up and running had it not been for all the help you've given. You know who you all are - one member wouldn't even let me pay postage, so I've sent a donation on behalf of the two of us. It's not quite finished but very close now, awaiting DVLA giving me a number.
I had my application rejected as I forgot to send a copy of a current Council tax bill to verify my address - yes, my fault entirely. Somehow, they managed to send it back to my house and my address is on the driving licence copy I sent - that THEY issued!
Anyway, thanks again folks, you've made a happy man very old (or summat like that!)

Ian, you should really have know better with dvla, but on an asside well done for getting there so quick
Orcade-Ian:
Thanks Bryan,
I will admit it was a great machine to start from and we've had a particularly crap Winter when being in the workshop was a good option and very few interruptions. I even refurbished the clocks which I had thought would be next Winters job.

Still have to fit the 069 carbs and airbox

Looks like the clock bracket needs a bit of straightening and bar clamps re-finishing sometime.

Couple of weeks, bet you beat me with the new carbs
Well done pal

That looks great. How about some more pics to motivate me to get on with mine.
