I found a couple of decent indicators, they have a few pits and scratches but overall not bad. Genuine stanley items, how about £10 plus post cost? trying to post pic but cant do at the moment.
Hi Mick, Thanks that would be great. PM me your details for payment. Shipping to WN8 6BE Thanks

oh also the front stems for the bigger indicators can be found with a male thread, 550k3 uk and possibly gl1000 goldwing use similar
Thanks again, I'm not that fussed with the front, but might be if they really stand out as being different.

is it just the larger indicators you need or the mounting bracket, the one on the pic looks like the large one and would not fit the indicator shown on the pic.
Hi, I have the large mounting bracket with large diameter stem to fit a grab rail so just need the indicator with large diameter hole. As you say the one in the pic is the small one and doesn't fit.

Found the large type adapters for the front indicators, they are female type, whereas the 550F2 has male type indicator mounts so to use them you'd need to change the fork ears as well.
The brackets you want are 33607-390-600, very rare these days. Only fitted to UK, European Direct and French 550F2s. CMS have 1 in stock at £58 or so. Also 1 at Honda4parts.nl .DS also has 1 in stock.
There are some male large type indicator stems for the front, 90154-404-610, just found a pair on the web.
Thanks Ken, I think I'd just need the larger diameter rears for now, just so I have working indicators. The bike isn't 100% original anyway.

I followed a vid on adjusting the Camchain tension. Cold engine and NOT running....I rotated engine to TDC then on a bit more till the spring post was in line, loosened the adjuster screw locknut........hopefully the blade then tensioned itself.....held the adjuster screw with a screwdriver and tightened the locknut again. It's improved things a bit, but it's still rattling away.
TBH the Honda Manual didn't say much about the adjustment so any advice is much appreciated.
Have you tried synchronising the carbs, if they're out it can accentuate camchain/ primarychain rattles.

pic of my f2 uk model indicator
Ah, ok. Can you PM me a price and or swap for the smaller ones I have. Bike looks great, in fact would you like to swap bikes,

But UK bikes came with Grabrails, doesn't this mean that they had the large diameter stem too?

Thanks Ken,
Do you have the large rear indicators?
Not too bothered about the shape. Surely they are the original shape fitted to the grab rail.

Hi, having acquired a grab rail, I need rear indicators with the large diameter opening to take the larger spigot which goes on the grab rail, as per pics.
I'll swap for the smaller diameter spigot and indicators or buy them, whichever is best.
