New CB550K1 owner
« on: September 23, 2018, 07:07:46 AM »
Hello. I’m an old Honda twins owner but I’m about to go pick up a CB550K1, 12000 miles for $200. It runs and looks complete minus some air box components and the side covers. Is there anything in particular I should pay close attention to? Anything to look at befor I commit to the purchase? Any input is greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks!

First off welcome to SOHC4ville.

For $200 for a running bike, only thing I would look for is a title!  Good luck...
