CB500 Frame differences U.S. vs UK

<< < (2/2)

Sesman:
Does a 550 motor produce more torque? I seem to recall all the mags at the time lauding the 550 as a significant riding improvement over the 500 motor? Maybe just the usual journal hype. I’ve never ridden either, though hope to have mine on the road this year.

Scotty67:
Thanks Trigger!

Bryanj:
Gearbox, gearchange and clutch operation were biggest changesplus crabkcases casting had slight difference so primary chain does not hit oil gallery quite as much
