Whose set of instructions did you follow? It would be good to have a step by step guide as has been suggested. 4

There is a cb350 near Hitchin on F-book Marketplace. Is that a similar thing? Looks quite nice to me. 8

CB500/550 / Re: Leak in front brake switch and by the caliper« Last post by Bryanj on Today at 07:05:49 AM »The caliper does not originaly have a crush washer as the original metal pipe seals on conical surfaces, but you have different fittingd and may need the washer

CB500/550 / Re: Leak in front brake switch and by the caliper« Last post by alexdecker on Today at 06:51:57 AM »Thank you all for the replies. The leak by the switch seems very minor. I don't need to pump the lever to make the brake work. But when I use the brake 3-4 times, a tiny drop of fluid will leak from the switch. I will try and see if I can tighten it a bit and maybe that helps.
I was looking at this spare part list (https://www.cmsnl.com/honda-cb550f2-super-sport-550-four-1977-european-direct-sales_model17122/partslist/F05.html) and the washers (part 17) just seemed like regular steel ones - that's why I got a little confused. The connection to the caliper pipe inlet is still a bit of a mystery to me. Maybe it's just broken. The part list doesn't say it needs a crush washer, so I don't know how to seal it. Why is there no crush washer here? - Alex |
