I ride it well within its capabilities, I never go above 6k revs, this is fine for 70mph in top and I have no desire to kill myself just yet!

Just rechecked my mpg and at the moment I am getting 63 mpg from my 76 550. It has an F1 engine with PD46A carbs so I was wondering what you guys are getting?

Not sealed beam but a normal incandescent bulb with shit connectors so I went for halogen

I was angling from an 'electric' reply but the battery still has 14 volts across it when bike is running, so no discernible difference to how it was before

Went to Honda dealer who just shook their collective heads, when I asked if they had any headlights they said 'No'. Got one from Panks automotive which fits a dream but the trouble is now the high beam won't work and the main fuse gets hot in the carrier, but at least the headlight is bright!

Had this on my 550 overflowing from carb 2. I took them off and cleaned the float needles and seat with carb cleaner and she was fine when all back together. I have an in line type filter between fuel tap and carb.

Anyone out there got a headlight assembly for a 76 550? Going for halogen conversion but all the lights I have tried do fit in the rim so I think I need to change the whole thing including bucket.

I just tried a couple of clamps from DS but they do not tighten enough, just used 8mm jubilee clips in the end and they fitted and tightened up a treat

Mine hasn't got them either and I'm not tempted to put them on either, I mean what's the point of them? they will only reflect in headlights if someone is coming in from the side and when they see them you are past them anyway.

My 550 does not like the rain either. Friend of mine swears by throwing a bucket of water over the engine, if it stops you know you have something to resolve.

Looking good Paul, where did you get the 4 into 4 exhaust?

I have a small metal plate bolted to the pinch bolt on the centre stand mount and this stops the stand getting near the chain.

200 mile trip is a good distance! whenever I go distance I always imagine the engine is making all sorts of noises but of course, it isn't!
