The BLUE BOMBER

THE BLUE BOMBER.

1977 Honda CB550F.

Original Condition, Unmodified.

Built in Japan.

The WORK

This bike was a repair project that was suffering from some wiring gremlins due to some “that’ll do” repair work from yesteryear.

After some rewiring and gremlin fumigation it received a full once over and tune up including carburetor synchronization (important on these old timers).

The GOOD OL’DAYS

All Hondas are renowned for their reliability but the 70s Hondas almost stand still in time. Not only did they set the standard for style and affordability, they still to this day, run as good as they did almost 50 years ago with only the most basic TLC. The 550F was a nimble middleweight contender that was smooth, quick and produced a melodic exhaust note..
