New guy from Orlando, FL 75 cb550 (pics added)
« on: July 12, 2008, 01:30:18 PM »
Just wanted to introduce myself.  Just picked up a non-running cb550F last week.  According to the previous owner it was running when it was put in storage and its been in storage for about 15 years total.  Overall condition is pretty good, minimal surface rust on the chrome parts and no dents/dings/scratches.  So far it looks to be all original.  I picked it up for $250 and I hope to have it running within the next month.

So, the strategy is to lie to people you are asking for help?

I think I'll be busy going for a ride.

Good luck!
