1975 CB550

This is a 1975 CB 550 four I have been working on. I rebuilt the carbs and lubed everything up. It now goes like Alex Trebek chasing a thief.









As cool as flames are, they don't really work on vintage bikes, or any bikes really. You can only pull off a flame job if you have a mullet blowing in the wind behind you while riding. This guy would look good on a bike with flames.



Anyway, I got rid of the flames and did a more classic looking stripe. It's a little dirty, but with the right seat, it finally looks like it should...old.
