Here’s a classic cowboy bodge!

FFS, that's the worst I've ever seen. He or she, should be shot for doing that.

For those interested. The new Hondas these days use black screws instead of the BZP ones fitted in the 70s. They are still JIS but all black, which look better IMO as they blend in with the switch. They also comes equipped with a captive spring washer so no more losing that when you remove the screw.

The 550 uses 4 x 25mm ones and one 32mm one. Part numbers are 93892-0502507 and 93892-0503207. If you look at the part number you can clearly see how Honda made that part number up. 93892 is for the location, eg switchgear, 05, screw diameter, 025, screw length, 07 colour of screw. So if your switchgear uses different lengths than those just substitute the 025 part for whatever length you need, a quick search online will tell you if Honda ever made them in that length.

They cost approx £1.34 each. Not a great deal to pay for a proper job.

 :o :oI dunno, I think thats a visual bonnanza! I think it shows off the chrome and foam grips a treat ;D

I’m sure that was the reason this switch was butchered. So that it could be moved further up the handlebars to accommodate that bloody hideous grips. Well I hope they enjoyed the grips cause the rest looked like the rear end of a horse.😡😡

Ha haa, bless yer, you’ll have it sorted no doubt John
