CB twin disc front end

<< < (2/3) > >>

BenLangton:
So the 550 or any of the late 70's bikes never came with a double disc as standard heard that they did for one year, stainless discs????

Thanks for the tips.

As far as i am aware none of them came with a double disc as standard, they are out there though, my old 500K3 has one which i done myself, you just have to machine down part of the speedo drive to make it fit without binding on the disc, it's an easy job to do.

I've searched the web trying to find what the front end is worth, wheels got a bit of surface rust to chrome but calipers, discs front legs, yokes, lever are all good.
All I found was conversion threads.

What's it worth going to sell it.

First twin disc was 750F2 all 500/550 were single disc but 550 had mirror image brackets to allow twin discs and all the Honda discs were stainless. All in its probably worth about £50 as you could probably assemble the parts to do it for that and as already said a TLS is a vERY backward step--Even a racing 4LS would be considered as a bad move by insurance companies and they were fitted to the first Suzuki 750 tripple

BenLangton:
Thanks all.
