Came across an ad for cb550 sale. Pay attention to carbs in the photo.

I could use a dent-free tank like that.

Can550 are those the handlebars you need ?

Frame vin shows it’s a 500 not a 550.

Well spotted
Yes I need handlebars and thought if he sells tank and bars I’ll buy. But apparently he considers his bike complete and rare thus would not sell any part off !

His choice, his bike

I may buy one reproduction from 4 into 1

I guess he found a short cut to float height level or perhaps bowls were leaking :)

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of it's victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S. Lewis
