Helloooo,
Here is a photoshop of a CB550, one day, I would like to build something like it.

looks awesome.  i love the cb550.

I think you're looking for this bike. Only imported to the US in 89-90 I think.  I almost bought one before the GS, but the guy wanted like 4 grand.

saw one at the Rock Store.  if it was in good shape, i believe 4 grand is an absolute steal for that bike.
