Honda-SOHC

Guys, what is M&P?

I'm wearing now for several years Daytona Burdit GTX shoes.
Never had better ones, 100% waterproof, but still breathable, even compare to other brands (for example Aplinestars SMX Plus GTX are not breathing compare to these)

Very comfortable, don't know about them even after full day use

No zipper, just welcro, not very heavy, looks  good under textil trousers.

Only drawback is price..

Are there some other available? I need new ones too for my K7... Heeelp

My stock petcock (2-way output) is leaking via cone plastic and I was not able to fix it, despite throughout cleaning. I tried to find replacement cone element but did not find, seems does not exist

So, I decided to buy new OEM Honda with 1-way output (16950-341-671) due to reasonable price.
Plan was to use T metallic splitter to connect 2 hoses to 1 output. However, there is very little space available to bend hoses and seems I'll not be able to make w/o bending hose that it will decrease petrol flow...
Other solution could be to use additional elbow "connector" or ideally U shaped one or other shape connector/splitter...

Does anybody have such solution implemented? Any advice what kind of connector / splitter fits?
Or any other inspiration from other Honda bikes?

I would start with bearing replacement by tapered one, I bet it cannot be good! And of course new tires.
Forks after.

Hi Dave
I just finished assembly of my 550K1.

My experience - wobbling at low speeds are caused by tire, its pressure (too low) and head bearing.

Forks - I did complete disassembly and cleaning, then assembly back and new fork oil Motul 10W, 160cc each leg.
I assume my fork is also 100% stock, springs lengths are 460mm. Despite I tried, I was unable to find service limit for my springs... Seems fork on CB550K and also later CB550F are different than my K1. Either I'm blinnd or just stupid, I did not find it in service manual, nor in Haynes book. I did not find exploded view of my fork in Service manual too (I have 2 small springs at bottom that are not shown in manual but are in spare parts catalogues on Partzilla, CMS....)

Wobbling/Tire - I would look at tire (do you have new one?), pressure? Maybe was standing deflating for years on one place and now tire has changed shape that is causing wobbling...
I have old( >20years) Kenda, it was wobbling too when I first tried bike when I received it.
BUT then I have replaced steering head bearing by tappered one and now, with old Kenda no wobbling at all, head bearing is a MUST change on these old bikes. Even new standard bearing will do the job...

I ordered new Avon Roadrider's AM26..

Note: On my CB750 K7 I have Battlax 45 and these are performing very good.

Dave,

I'm just doing the same. I found GREAT hoses from Goodridge, looking as stock but braided, very nice. Will share more details later today (you have my email too)
