Aiboxes and airfilters for CB500/550

(1/4) > >>

Erny:
Hi all,

I have CB550K1 (type 374) import from US that has rather specific (in Europe) airbox and also air filter. Part diagram for my CB550K1 US model : https://www.cmsnl.com/honda-cb550-k1-four-1975-usa_model466/partslist/F++05.html#.YhgS0eiZOMo

It is difficult and expensive too to get new filter. Genuine very hard to find (and expensive) and alternative/repro too. CMS does not have them anymore.

So, I start to consider changing whole airbox to other type (European?) that will solve this problem...

Does anybody have good overview what is the "best" option to look at? I mean what airbox(airbox housing)/filter I should be serching for?

Thanks for your ideas

You don't need a new air box, just use a 550 F1/2 air filter  ;)

Erny:
so, simply buy 17210-390-P00 ?

I did not find any compatibility with 17210-374-P00 or 17210-374-003..

But would be great if it fits!

Erny:
for example, this one? https://www.ebay.de/itm/124801958267?epid=1014623385&hash=item1d0ec6c17b:g:nJ8AAOSwOupg5dEW&shqty=1&isGTR=1#shId

If you look up a picture 390 air box it is identical to a 374. Even the cover,element 374 shares  the same part number as the F1/2 ;)
