    1975 Honda CB550 Project Bike

    Hi Everyone
    I bought this bike with the intention of finishing it but realized it was a pipe dream. As far as I can tell its a complete bike including all the major parts (may have to buy a nuts/bolts lot on ebay). The tanks if fully sanded and bondo'd and all of the other parts seem to be in good working order. Let me know if you are interested in the whole lot and not just pieces and parts.

    $450 or BO. Pictures to follow tonight.

    If someone here buys this drop me a mail. I have a box of parts and a couple exhaust systems for a 550 you can have on the cheap. The stuff has been in my garage for years.

    HI Guys
    Sorry I was off the grid all weekend due to a cold and pregnant wife. Here you go. I only have a bill of sale as the title is long gone. The small parts are all in the blue bins you see in the picture.

    Besides the obvious needing to assemble everything. Is there anything major missing to get this running? Was looking for a project for this year since we have the kid on the way and building a Cafe racer out of this may just be that project.

    If you decide to part it out let me know. I'd be interested in the motor (assuming good compression) and the front end

    Hi Burtonboarder
    As far as I can tell all major parts are accounted for. The only thing you might have to buy in a nut/bolt kit on ebay (they are around $35 for a used set which will include all nuts/bolts). Thanks.
