CB500/550 / CB550K1 real wheel disassembly - how to remove flange?
« on: March 10, 2019, 08:59:01 PM »
Tried to disassembly rear wheel today, did not manage to separate final drive flange from hub...

Do I need to remove bearing retainer & bearing? Looking at diagram, it should not be needed, or?

I'm trying to remove item pos 10

I put brand new genuine honda grommets in my bike last yer but the are still bloody hard and tight when removing the panels.....could easily be broken off if you weren’t careful. I put a dab of vaseline on them to help....
I have exactly the same experience, despite installing new genuine (soft) grommets, put vaseline, but still left side panel cracked... I used JB weld to glue it back, did not test yet. Strongly thinking to grind tabs a little to make them smaller to pass grommets more easy

I do not know this, I have only US bars... That's why I'm asking.

But in principle, I suppose I can use any 750 bars, even with holes, no?

The 300 are 750 with holes and the 390 are 550 F bars with holes. Because you don't have the problem of running wire inside, you can use any aftermarket bars.

These are nearly identical to the european bars but, no holes >>> https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Handlebar-7-8-Chrome-2-50-Rise-Each/112136486906?hash=item1a1bdafffa:g:nu8AAOSwE9Bbs6ab:rk:11:pf:0

I will get Julie to show you a pic with them on her 550  ;)
These 300 and 390 - what is width and rise?

Just working on the same topic on 550 K1 1975, US model - plan to replace US bars by low UK (EU) bars. Does anyone know length of upper hose for UK (EU) bars?

Stock US one measured eye center - eye center is aprox 375mm.

just to add : I'm ordering custom made ones, so need to provide length...

CB750 / CB750 K7 lower handlebars (european standard)
« on: February 20, 2019, 10:01:49 AM »
I have genuine US model of K7, means higher handlebars.
These are too high for me, would like to fit lower, like european K7 models had.

I did not find any good stock ones for sale, so looking for aftermarket.
Can somebody recommend good aftermarket ones? I'm sure it fits from other CB models, but dont know from which.
Was checking DSS and CMSNL but did not find clear reference to aftermarket alternative...

K7 has cables routed on outside of bars, so no holes needed. Concerning width, I'd like the same as stock or wider, definitely not narrower.


Just add
I found meanwhile on DSS 2 types of european handlebars:
- for CB750 K2 : FDBAA-300-610P https://www.davidsilverspares.co.uk/CB750K2-FOUR-1972/part_188998/
- for CB750 K6 : FDBAA-390-620P https://www.davidsilverspares.co.uk/CB750K6-FOUR-1976/part_188997/

Enybody knows the difference? Raise hight / width / holes?...

I just ordered DID530 X ring chain too.
Clearance is something I did considered at all. Can someone confirm it will or not fit?

The point is that ring chain is today almost the same as good quality std chain. That's why I opted for it.

CB500/550 / CB550 K1 USA - Air filter
« on: January 31, 2019, 10:02:31 PM »
Hi all,

since today I have o top of my 750 K7 also 550 K1, so new project is starting  ;)
Started to list works to be done, spares to buy... a lot to do. ::)

First hesitation is Air filter (OEM Honda Air Cleaner Element 17210-374-003 or 17210-374-P00) no more available, I looked at HiFlo, they dont provide too.

So, which brand/type would you recommend? I want to keep bike stock...

Thanks
