Title: CB550F0 standard air filter parts
Post by: Plammiman on May 19, 2023, 09:10:55 AM

Hi I am looking for the seal plate in the bottom of the air filter box on my CB550F0. The item is part number 17353374003.

I found everything else to do with the air filter system to get it back to standard, just surprised that so many bikes have pod filters fitted there must be tons of air filter assemblies kicking around people garages. Why so rare🤷🏻‍♂️

Rare, because it's a crap system and used to get binned back in the 70s and replaced with a 500 filter and the engine vented to air instead. Even back then air filters weren't cheap and the oily air coming out of the engine used to coat the inside of the paper filter and clog it up.

Fit the CB500 air filter, it's cheaper, easier to find and stays cleaner longer. Vent the engine to air.
