CB500/550 / Re: Fitting a Delkevic exhaust system on my CB550F 1977
« on: July 22, 2023, 08:36:13 AM »
Pretty sure that the bracket needs to go on the outside face of the footrest mount or the bolt head and exhaust mounting bracket will strike the swing arm? I’ve got an F1, but I’m not in a position to take photos until later this afternoon. If Trig doesn’t get round to sending a photo I’ll send one this pm.

It’s bent the bracket quite nicely. A good firm ride….

The report is correct, I developed bacterial meningitis….twice. But only once from rats piss. Best knowledge at the time suggested it was from water in some piled up tractor tyres at the farm. It’s the worlds best weight loss programme.

98 800 FI in Red. Wish I’d never sold it. Took me on multiple euro tours and only one reg/rect failure. Mint.

Mine is not yet on the road yet, so I will have to see

750 never seemed to squeak, i have never had one squeal . It is always the 400, 500 and 550's. ;)

It either did or didn’t 🤔

Do we knowwhat causes it…Ted is convinced it’s the pad edge

Hi, Ted. Thinners and nylon brush. Yes, I used a strong solution of Allendales best in the US cleaner.

I used thinners then 20 mins in the ultrasonic tank @ 50deg and they came up like new.

And they were definitely not ‘fast’. 400s are dog slow….

Hi Ted. If that 550 unit eventually becomes a spare I’d appreciate an opportunity to buy.

That’s interesting. A bloke pulled out to pass me Ona blind bend and drove headlong into another car. The resulting carnage was horrendous with two persons including myself hospitalised. The driver was not prosecuted for any offence as he fessed up immediately. Go figure.
