Title: CB650 / 550 part swap.
Post by: BlackSheep on May 02, 2014, 06:59:06 PM

Sorry if this has been asked before, I've tried 'Search' but i've so far only drawn blanks. Two queries.

Is the oil-pump from a CB650, fitable to a CB550F2 ?

And the same goes for the sump. I have seen this somewhere that this is possible, the proviso being it has to be a particular model CB650, and obviously the pick-up has to be modded to cater for the 650's deeper sump.

650 sump is deeper and provides more capacity. There may be some minor modifications required apart from what you mentioned.
I've seen this talked about on the US forum recently.

Don't think the pump fits
