CB500/550 / Re: 550K0 restoration
« on: August 04, 2019, 04:23:57 PM »
Been working away at the cb550 over the last couple of months, and nearing completion
stripped the tank, side pods and headlight casing and took the bull by the horns and had a go at spraying for the first time.
put the bike all back together and tried to get it started, no spark on 2+3, new capacitors fitted and engine started first time.
fitted new Delkevnic 4-1 exhaust
2 x avon AM26 roadriders
New RHD headlight unit with H4 bulb.
Down to MOT centre this morning and passed the test.
still a bit of tinkering with the ignition and cards as it is not running smoothly.
