Bryanj:
Thats only for old british bikes Roo when frames were not straight

Laverdaroo:
I know about the British stuff but had no info on the 550, you read so much on here and other places on the net regarding this and that and it completely didn't click that there might be an off set, I hadn't read anything about it so it wasnt  on the radar so to speak.
 After burning the midnight oil last night, that was the conclusion I came to but there's an awful lot on here to throw you off.
Even Hondaman refers to there being off set on a number of the Honda fleet, so you think, 'ooo', better chase that and of course it comes to nothing but you have to check. What a pain in the ar*e though!


Cheers Bryan, appreciate it mate.

Sitting down Roo?

Thought this might interest you. I'd advice seeing if they have any more next time you're over there before they see what it's worth.

Prices are going really silly.

I need a key ordering for my 500, found one, genuine Honda, same key number as mine but the seller won't post to the UK and he doesn't accept messages, if you're going again let me know.

Laverdaroo:
Stop looking at expensive stuff!
I have loads of these (6) all without the mesh screens but have the rubber seal the mesh sits in intact so could be rebuilt!


That’s bloody silly money!

Where’s this key and I’ll sort it bud…

Someone does the mesh holder on site, 3D printed IIRC. The mesh can be bought off Ebay, get stainless so it doesn't rust.

I have an alert set up so when one comes up on Ebay it lets me know, my BIL wanted another as he stood on his, well mine as it my bike but he's sort of adopted it. So I set up the alert in case one turned up.

I'll PM you the details of the Ebay auction it's on, the key number is very rare, this is the first time I've ever seen one, my daughters in NY right now and I asked her to buy it for me but she's not sure if they'd deliver to a hotel and what happens if it's delayed and she's gone home by the time it arrives etc.
