I just picked up this old school Club Racer style '74 Honda CB550 yesterday. Its in pretty good condition for being 35 yrs old, but could still use some more work. Its my first bike, and so far has been fun learning on. I'm planning on leaving it as is for the summer (besides any maintenance and tinkering that needs done), and doing more major work to it over the winter. These are just some quick pics I snapped in the garage today. Enjoy!

Still not sure exactly what paint scheme/look I'm gonna go with in the future. But I like how really simple and clean some Cafe Racers look. Probably try something like that...

I think it should red and blue with white stars to match your Bowden for President 2024 stickers.
