CB500/550 / how to tell original colour?

« on: February 09, 2019, 06:48:35 PM »

my 550F2 is an american import so i don't have any paperwork for it or anything yet, its missing the side panels and while the tank is a matte blue colour at the moment it appears to be an orangey red underneath the blue (could be primer i guess)
but is there anything on the bike i can use to check what colour its supposed to be?

CB500/550 / Carb compatibility?

« on: January 27, 2019, 06:33:27 PM »

The two outer carbs on my bike are needing to be replaced, My set are 069a, mick has a set of carbs 22 but only 1-3, is it possible to swap components across from mine and a rebuild to make 1 and 3 work? Or is it not compatible

CB500/550 / 1977 CB550f parts questions

« on: January 15, 2019, 03:15:13 PM »

i haven't actually received my bike yet but i know it is missing a few parts.
the foot pegs and the Tacho.
are the pegs from all 550s the same? i dont want to get the wrong thing if there is something specific for the F

the speedo looks like it has a blue fascia. is that an odd colour or just poor ebay photos? all the tachos i see online are either black or a greeny colour.
