Hi, New to the forum, don't have a SOHC nor a Honda at the moment, but I had one of the first CB550F1 in 1976 in the gorgeous blue. It was my first big bike after passing my test on an SL125 the step was massive but I survived.
I soon dumped the original heavy and quiet exhaust for a black S&S 4-1, K&N individual pods Girling gas shocks and ace bars. I thought it was the fastest thing around at the time. ;D
Like a lot of guys I'm on the look out for another one if anyone knows of any going.
Cheers

Welcome to the forum, hopefully you'll find the bike you're looking for.
Although there used to be quite a few of those around it's not often you see one out and about now, must be some lurking in someone's storage somewhere.

Welcome to the forum, enjoy it and good luck finding a CB550F1, there's bound to be one coming up now the summer is nearly here.

Welcome to the forum,
If you dig out that genuine original exhaust a shocks from the loft, you should have enough to buy a real minter when you sell them! 😉. If only we had known what would happen back then!
Seriously though, lots of help from members here will keep you on the right track.

Exactly, If only....... Think I gave them to the scrap man. I'd also have kept my H1 500 and LC 350. ::)
