Title: CB550 K3 Airbox Fittings
Post by: PennoK3 on January 21, 2024, 05:51:45 PM

I am very close to having all the bits I need to rebuild my airbox apart from the parts identified as Stay A and Stay B (threaded brackets for the airbox top).   I have one of them but I don't know if its A or B, is there a way to identify it specifically ?

They are a different width where they fit in the recess in the airbox.

Stay A is the narrow one 20mm stay B is the wide one 30mm

This does not refer to the airbox side, but to the correct orientation of the boots between the carbs and the head.

Thanks all its Stay B I need then.   CMSNL have one for £14.00 which seemed reasonable (ish) but not when you add £15.00 postage!!!!!!
