CB500/550 / Rear wheel bearing retainer
« on: January 25, 2017, 08:54:46 PM »
Hi again...

How do you get this bar steward off....please

I've drilled out the stakes...I think

I've heated the retainer, made a tool, and hitting it in the opposite direction to the inscribed arrow....

CB500/550 / Best rim size front and rear
« on: January 23, 2017, 09:53:22 PM »
Hi

I'm thinking of having new rims and new spokes for my brat style build.
Any tips as to best sizes.
Should I stay stock....or is it possible safe and sensible to beef the rim width up.
I really like the fat tyre, big profile look.....but I also want to ride it

Any help appreciated

Interchangeability / Alternative 550 engine
« on: January 16, 2017, 07:12:38 PM »
Hi...I think my bike is a 76 f1 USA import.

I have the chance of a second engine to use or to use as spares for the right money.
It's a 78 k3 ?

Will it fit.
Will bits be mostly interchangeable

Thanks in advance

CB500/550 / Circlip and piston removal ...master cylinder front brake
« on: January 15, 2017, 05:35:33 PM »
Hi....I've dug down to my circlip...or what's left of it.
Any tips for getting it out. It won't budge if I try to prize it...the holes and lugs are buggered,

Cheers

New Member Introductions / Hi....

Hi..I'm Keith from Stoke on Trent. Thanks for letting me in.

I've taken delivery of a 76 USA import 550f today. My plan is to build a brat style bike.

I'm pretty new to bike mechanics...and hate electrickery....so I may be asking loads of questions.

I have a fair few bits that are surplus to my requirements....such as front and rear mudguards...rear indicators and stop light...

So...get in touch if you need anything.

I'm also looking for 2 keihin carb top covers....which were missing on mine

Will get over to the wanted section

Cheers for now
