CB500/550 / Brake Piston Stuck

« on: September 17, 2016, 01:42:23 PM »

Hi all, still trying to sort out thr front brake on my 550K3, the wheel caliper piston is stuck all the way in, how do I get it out? I think it is partially seized. Also the front disc plate was rubbing on the fork bottom, I slacken the front wheel clamps and tap the spindle slighty which released it but how much tolerance should you have between the disc plate and fork bottom leg?

CB500/550 / CB550K Disc Brake Cover

Is there any difference between the CB550K front disc spat cover and the 400/4? Would a 400/4 one fit in a fashion?

Cheers

CB500/550 / Front Brake Hoses

« on: August 14, 2016, 02:34:28 PM »

Hi all, thinking of changing the front brake hoses on the good old 550k3 for braided ones. So obvious question is what are the best ones to buy and from where? It is good to get others people thoughts before I buy.Cheers in advance for any replies.

CB500/550 / DID Chain

Hi all, just brought a new DID chain and JT sprockets for the 550, question is the chain dosen't have the old u shape clip, it comes with four o rings. Is this now a compression joint? If so what do you compress it with.

CB500/550 / Feeler Gauge

« on: March 28, 2016, 09:12:28 AM »

Hi, new here.

It is probably me or my eye sight but I am looking for a set of feeler gauges to set my tappets on my newly purchased 550 K3.

I can't seem to find a set that covers 0.05mm and 0.08mm

Is it me just being stupid? I shall go and have another look.

Bye
Dave
