CB550F2 Mirror mounts

(1/2) > >>

Bro550F:
Hi guys, my memory isn't good enough to remember back to '76 when I had my first 550 F, I can't remember how the std, mirrors were fastened on. I seem to recall the left (or both) was a left hand thread.
My current 550F2 has a clamp around the handlebar with the mirror attached !! It doesn't look OEM.

Could you post up pictures of both sides where mirrors attach please.

Also the right hand switchgear, I think should only show lights ON/OFF and not HIGH/LOW.
Pictures speak a thousand words.

Cheers.

Seabeowner:
All my 500/550s including an F1 have normal right hand thread for both mirrors. Annoying when the left one comes loose.

Bro550F:
Thanks,
Looked on CMS, seems like the left-hand switch is unavailable!!!
Anyone got one or know someone who might have one.

TIA

I have some spares for the switch and unless the metal is broken it may be possible to repair it.

I'll check tomorrow and take a pic. Ta.

Bro550F:
Here are some pics.
I think the both switches are wrong type for my bike!!!
L/H doesn't have thread for mirror, R/H is newish aftermarket type?!?
