CB500/550 / CB650 / 550 part swap.
« 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.

New Member Introductions / Hello from Sunny Tewkesbury
« on: April 20, 2014, 08:34:09 PM »
Hello.

And greetings from Tewkesbury !

Why its taken so long to get here - I just don't know. From the age of 17 I've owned a black CB500/4 (1973 vintage). I'm restoring it slowly - probably just in time for it's 50th birthday. It was my 1st m/cycle, and at £350, cost me most of my first term's tech college's grant.

I also have a heavily modded (and very lightweight) 1999 Ducati 900ssie, and also a stock 1999 Suzuki Bandit (1200).

All very differant motorcycles, but all have a place/roll to play in life.

I'm married to Louise, and between us we have 3 children - David (31), Mark (30) and the youngest is Claire. We're also keen cyclists (the type you have to pedal), and probably pedal more miles than drive.

I will have a go at uploading some pics of m/bikes sometime, I'm sure to ask plenty of dumbo questions - so please make allowances, but I will try not to be too much of a chump.

I look forward to plenty of banter, receiving advice and if possible sharing tips I've learned over the past 39 years of owning m/bikes.

Cheers all.
