Welcome to the Forum Brian. I'm from Tunbridge Wells originally so your area was a regular place to visit. I also worked at Queen Marys Hospital in Sidcup at one time. Anyways, do you have any photos of your bike?

Thanks Julie....you are a gem! So I fit the short one first and strain back on the longer one until it's in position. 
Yep, you may need a spring puller, or anything with a hook on it, to pull the long end up and on to the ledge on the casing.

Sounds like the bike for sale in Sheffield at the moment.....i could be wrong of course.Absolutely no paperwork is always a huge risk, especially on an import. Good luck.

If it's a CB550 four K3 you are looking at, they have PD carbs fitted and the carbs block for fun if the bike is not ridden regularly. F's don't have PD carbs fitted.

Just to clarify, is it a CB550 F1 or F2 or a CB550K ?

Both totally different bikes and cannot be compared. The 400 is buzzy, needs to be ridden like a 2 stroke, loves being thrashed, hates being ridden with the engine lugging. Hard work to ride properly as need to be up and down the gearbox all the time. Incredible fun, great handling and a true 1970's sports bike. Uncomfortable seat.
550F. Easy to ride, very comfortable, will pull in any gear, doesn't mind being lugged. Great handling. Good on longer journeys. Handles exceptionally well. Comfy.
I have both and love both for totally different reasons.
Edit....parts alot harder to source for the CB550F
