Hi Hi All, DS sells the left side switchgear for a 550 K1 , does anyone know if it is the same as my 1975 550 F . It looks the same but was just wondering about the wires . Many Thanks Dave

Oddjob:
It depends on where the bike comes from originally.

The 550K1 wasn't imported into the UK so it would depend on what type was fitted to it. If it was a US model they didn't get the headlight flasher that the UK 550F did for instance, just a horn button.

I'm also not 100% sure if the 550K1 used the same switchgear as the 500 it was based on, does the left hand switchgear on yours have Hi/low on it?

Davelu88:
Hi yes mine is US import so it has indicators,  horn & Hi/ low beam ,. Regards

Trigger:
Dave , the K1 wires go to the headlight and F1/F2 go to a junction box under the tank so, the wires will not be long enough to reach the junction box on a F  ;)

Oddjob:
Good point. What’s wrong with your switch at present?
