Second owner. Only 8300 ORIGINAL MILES. Very "mild cafe". Parts to turn the bike back to factory are included. I bought this bike a couple years ago from a 70+ year old man who bought it brand new in late 1978/early 1979. This is the SOHC Single Over Head Cam. Last year of it I believe. The original owner rode the bike about 300 miles a year, then cleaned it, waxed it, and put it back away at the end of each season. New tires. Newer battery. ORIGINAL SEAT COVER! Those are worth $500 by themselves. This bike even has the factory yellow paint on the bolts from when it was built! I am including everything in the pictures. The only thing that isn't completely original is the exhaust. The original owner changed to this exhaust in the late 70's. I was able to track down 2 or the original 4 exhaust pipes from a local dealer that had some "take offs" from 1978. If you can find the other 2, this bike would be nearly a museum piece. I've never seen a 550K in this good of condition before. I get attention everywhere I go with this bike. A real head turner! Starts and runs fantastic. Battery charges, brakes work great, carbs have been completely rebuilt and balanced. Video of this bike starting and running. Check out how quickly it starts!! https://youtu.be/a1O_sNYA30s
Excellent classic bike restoration project! Not too many of the CB750-Four's around, becoming a collector item. Asking $1200. Phone: 262-538-2468 (leave message if no answer). - Mileage: 26,316 (hi-way miles, driven frequently to Rhinelander) - Always stored. - Clean title. - Was driven yearly until 2012, sat in storage 2013. - Attempted to start it summer 2014, carbs are gummed, throttle is stiff, only got it running on 3 cylinders. - After-market exhaust, 4 into 2, side turn-outs. Suspected work needed to get it drivable: - Clean (rebuild) carbs. - Fix front brake-line (metal line wore through at fender). - Needs a battery. - Tires need review. - Replace throttle grip (or affix current grip so it doesn't slip). Condition - Tank and side covers need re-painting. - Motor, transmission and clutch: no known issues. - All lights, and horn works. - Chain and sprockets are about 70% used. - Wheels need clean-up, possibly spoke tightening. - Original seat has splits in vinyl. - No major dings, has a little road-rash on side of motor from a tip-over.
