Nice to see another apparantly huge fan of the 500/550 Hondas. My first bike was a 1973 CB500K. Loved it. Bright canary yellow like your 550. Then I moved on to a 550F which I restored to original condition with the Sunrise Orange tank/sidecovers. Ended up selling it and getting into a BMW R75, but I still long for the 500/550. One day I'll add one to the collection.
 
ahhhh..... i have aslo had a bit of a love hate relationship with 500/550 strange. had a k3 and a 500 years ago thats why i got my 500. mixed memories of them. lots of fun but also a major injury on the back of a friends 550. Broken leg (plated) broken arm, concussion, damaged back, and lots of skin gone on my bum. ouch_... 550 centre stands dig in to early and at 80mph that hurts.( he lost his leg) but still have a soft spot for them. think it is the simplicity and lines when altered a little. Good to see so many are still around.
