That, my friend, is a 1978 Yarley Kawasondafield. Very rare, indeed....Made only 10 months in a suburb of Northern Ireland for export to Greenland. Yes, indeedyo.

:ohmy:


Otherwise, are you sure it's not really a Yamaha? Not nearly as exciting a find but...*shrug*

or maybe the CB 500/4 from a couple of year earlier. This model had a 4 into 4 exhaust.
Did'nt the 550 have a 4 into 1 ?

Found a pic of the CB 500. I had one in the mid 70s. Great bike.

You Guys are probably right,cause it doesresemble the bike in the pic,that JR posted...same seat,same pipes etc.
I was really hoping that it was a Kaw.
I downloaded that video,and as I was watching it,I would run out to My garage where I have a "Z-Power" poster with all the Z models on it,but nothing was jumping out at Me,but like I said,the video was pretty hazy so I thought I'd ask...thanks Troops!B)

Not to flog a dead horse (or flog a horse not many people care about = old Honda's), did some digging and the 1971-3 CB500K0/2 models were virtually identical to the 1974 CB550K0 (except for displacement)...and different paint colors (tank scheme pattern was the same) which is difficult to discern in the post. The CB550 w/4into1's was the 1977 CB550F.

Ha! The bike in question does not have a brace behind the taillight...thus making it a 1971 CB500K0...way too much time on my hands:S :dry:
