CB500/550 / Cb550 dual disk
« on: October 27, 2017, 03:00:12 PM »
I have the parts for a dual disk conversion for my cb550f just wanted some opinions from those who have or have not done it.
Is it an easy conversion?
Is it worthwhile?
What all do I need apart from the calipers, disks and a master cylinder?
Does anybody have any pics and maybe a good how to.
Thanks T.

Hi
Have we any members near Walsall?
Reason I ask is it have been trying to get hold of a shiney orange panel or tank to take to my painter and a cb550 shiney orange tank has just popped up on eBay but it's collection only.
If I was lucky enough to win it could anybody pick it up for me and post on obviously I will pay the postage....
Thanks.

Anybody got a set of 550 0649A carbs they are willing to part with.
One of mine has disintegrated inside was sitting full of water and the metal spring in the bowl has rotted and corroded  the aluminium.
Don't mind the condition even an incomplete set would do .

CB500/550 / Cb550f wiring diagram
« on: February 03, 2017, 07:37:16 AM »
Hi
I'm having issues as I can't get any power  to my headlight.
I bought my loom from eBay usa a few years ago and I'm not sure if my loom is from a k or f model.
Everything else works fine and all the wiring matches up to the awitch especially etc.
The loom connects in the headlight and in a junction box under the tank.
The only difference is see is the tail lights and instrument lights come on when the ignition is switched on but I see this is done by a brown blue jumper wire to black.
I really can't figure out why I have no power to the headlight on hi or low settings.
Any help much appreciated  thanks.

Misc / Open / Cb 550f2 vin plate info
« on: January 22, 2017, 08:49:49 AM »
Hi
Can anybody show me a pic of a vin plate for a cb550 f2.
Mine has been removed by the previous owner for powder coating but I can still see the heads of the rivets where  it was located behind the right hand side panel.
I have the tax book with all the info and I see plates on eBay but I want to check they have the correct information for a UK bike.
Is there any other source for these vin plates if the eBay one doesn't have the right information for a UK bike.
Thanks.
