VERY Tired CB 550
« on: November 17, 2025, 06:55:14 PM »
I have a nominaly N reg 550 that i have discovered is in a 500 frame.

This is in atrocious condition with a lacework tank, no seat or rear shocks and a 759 front caliper.
Has been stood many years and is nor pretty.

Cost is ZERO but needs collecting from Gloucester, pics are possible if you send me a PM

ONCE AGAIN THIS IS AN ABYSMALL BIKE
