Hello, Picked up a '78 CB550 yesterday. I was a t a local used car dealership fixing a buddies van for him and seen this forlorn bike sitting in a corner. Covered in dust, last tagged in '93. Odometer shows 19k miles. I have dabbled briefly in bikes in the past having had a '73 TS250 enduro, a 650 yamaha, a 73 CB350, but I never made it past my endoresment when I had the enduro 20 years ago. I have built an run derby cars, and dirt track cars up to dirt late models and currently race dirt karts in the clone class. So I am not unfamiliar with things mechanical. My ACVW has benifited greatly from the VW forum I frequent and I hope to have the same experiance here.
