The Honda Motor Company was founded by Soichiro Honda in 1937, initially producing piston rings for Toyota. They made their first motorcycle in 1949 and within 10 years had become the biggest motorcycle manufacturer in the world. They have gone on to produce over 400 million two-wheelers as well as millions of other power products. The legendary CB750/4 was launched in 1969 to great acclaim and laid down the blueprint for the modern day superbike and beginning a range of SOHC Honda fours ranging from 350cc upwards. The 500 model followed shortly after the 750, eventually growing to 550cc.
The Honda CB550/4 on offer is a very original machine, the silencers have been changed due to bad corrosion, but apart from that it has mellowed well over the years. It has a few marks here and there but overall it’s a very presentable machine for its age. The current vendor has not used it much since the purchase due to other commitments. It comes complete with a current V5C and a folder with paperwork.
