CB500/550 / Re: Got a problem

« on: September 29, 2018, 10:06:36 AM »

Hello again, thank you for the answers. I’ve been away for a while, but finally yesterday I could tried few things, I cleaned the carbs, idles and changed petrol and filter. Now I have petrol on the carbs drainage screws. I tried to use the car battery to start her and some smoke came from the left side (were cables and fuses are) now unfortunately there is no sparks in any of the cylinders. I checked fuses and all seems ok. I just removed battery cables very quick to avoid any damage on the installation.

what do you think guys Did I fried something or what should I check.

I just tried to start the motorbike today after a few months stopped. But unfortunately is not working as it should, I checked and I have ignition in all the sparks, she got running after keeping open throttle but very irregular because the right side cylinders doesnt get warm ( no explosion into the two right cylinders side)

Any suggestion? Or just leave the carbs into an specialist?

Thanks

Judging by the handlebars and chromed rear light bracket that is a US import

Yes, the previous owner told me that the bike it was imported from California to Dublin.

The handlebar is to tall...... lower is better

Hello all

At first, sorry about my english, I come from Spain, but I'm in Ireland since a short time back.

This is my purchase is a Honda Cb 550 K '77 (K3 I think, because of the fuel tank), the bike it seems a F Super Sport in the paintwork.

I like the motorbike, runs ok and its in good condition, some details need but nothing really important.

I would like to get better noise from the exhaust, I like the Carpy's 4-1 but I think is not possible to buy from here.

My intention is to change the handlebar, and try to find some beautiful seat, I love the Gb 500 seat.

Kind Regards
