Although I don’t think it’ll gain much interest on here BUT I’ll give it a whirl.

The time has come for me to sell my CB550 ☹  
This bike has a TON of man hours into it and a lot of quality one off parts on it (Thanks again Newman and Nick!). I have most of the receipts for it as well. It’s located in Niagara Falls, NY.  
1977 CB550 Clean/Clear NYS Title:

Custom one off seat hoop  
DCC up-swept style seat  
Custom one off steel side covers  
Ultrasonic cleaned and COMPLETE new rebuild kit on the carbs and jetted  
Carpy 4:1 Yoshi-rep exhaust (sounds amazing, thanks again Carpy!)  
Brand new exhaust gaskets  
New valve cover with rubber “pucks” as well  
Woodcraft Clip-ons  
New shifter shaft seal  
New oil pump seals  
New plugs  
New wires  
Synchronized Carbs  
Uni-pods  
New Battery  
Custom Stainless Steel brake lines with banjo bolts  
Gas tank knee dents  
Front and Rear tires have one season on them (Kenda Challenge)  
Rolling Rock Catch Can (ha)  
New gold foot pegs (have passengers as well)  
New Motion Pro Throttle/Clutch/Choke Cables  
RFY 12.5" Reservoir Height Adjustable Shocks

Honestly this bike runs great, I’ve gone through about 35 tanks of fuel this season without a hiccup. It’s an old vintage Honda so please note that it is not perfect. It leaks oil just like many of them do but other than that its a blast to rip around town on. I’m sure I’m forgetting some things, if any questions please feel free to ask or PM me, thank you!  
PRICE: $3000

Finders fee will be given if this thing moves quick, found another project I’d like to pick up before winter!

Nice! It’s hard letting go of a project you put a lot of time and effort into.
