Yes, press for horn, push to side for pass light, most Honda fours of euro spec had them.
If it's got tits or wheels, it's hassle, if it's got both, RUN!!!

Are the switches with just the horn USA spec?

Most of the later ones like that have been that I've seen, But I seem to recall my 750K2 had only a horn button, no pass light, and I'll have to check with a mate who I seem to remember had no pass light on his 500/4, but I haven't seen him or his bike for more than 15years! :-[

The switch on the CB550F has a pass light switch, and the switch gear is basically the same as the CB400/4 and CB750K6 ;)

It changed at a year I cant remember and Honda superseded the horn only switch with the horn/pass switch  so if you needed a replacement you got the combined one unless you could find old stock

If its of any help my USA spec 500 four K0 1971 has only turn and horn on LHS (ie no pass)
If you think there's light at the end of the tunnel it's usually another train !!
