CB500/550 / Cb550f1 carb petrol coming out of overflow
« on: December 31, 2016, 09:37:48 AM »
Morning to all
I have removed the carbs and cleaned fitted rebuild kit the rebuild kit came with 3 small rubber o rings not sure where they went and looking at other rebuild kits u could get they wernt always included (so didn't fit them)
Before I fitted them back on the bike I put petrol through them on the bench one of the carbs is still leaking via the overflow is this the norm or have I still got a problem
Any ideas what could be causing this and any solutions
Ps the floats don't seem to be sticking
Many thanks and a happy new year

CB500/550 / Cb550 front brake
« on: April 06, 2016, 03:44:07 PM »
Long time since I've had a bike with a single pot calliper should you be able to pull the lever virtually right to the grip?
Recently stripped the calliper cleaned it up put in new seal and new washers on the banjos and bled it through dosnt seem to be any air in the system but the lever seems to pull in a long way?

CB500/550 / F1 or F2
« on: March 13, 2016, 10:11:47 PM »
Recently bought a 1977 cb550f in bits has frame number 1027134 and engine number 1142210
Some of the parts are duplicated but some look they could be from a f1 and some from a f2  I though because it's a 1977 it would be a  F2 but now not so sure anyone got any ideas
Thanks
