[beardylondon]

Sorry, I presume this has been asked before, but can someone recommend the best workshop manual for the CB550 K

Alladins cave on here but you need the 500 manual plus the supplementsup to your model

Apparently it's a French one! 🤣

Bike or manual? The parts book on there is Japanese.
I supplied them all to Ash by the way.

I can still burn the all to a dvd for a small fee if wanted

[beardylondon]

cheers guys.

Merci

I found the Haynes manual very useful. Has the clearest print of the wiring diagram that I could find including Aladdins cave prints.

When I am at work next week I am going to scan my CB500/4 Haynes Manual. Much maligned by some folk on here but I find them a decent addition to the Genuine Honda Shop manual. I already scanned the 750 SOHC one and it's in my Dropbox links already.
I also have the 500 Clymer one I think but from memory that was all over the place and I never got on with it.

[Bryanj]

Trouble with the Haynes Ash it tries to cover the 350,400,500 and 550 the smaller ones are different enough to make that cnfusing rading.
I was told that Haynes had bought Clymer but not sure how true that is, their museum is worth a visit

[deltarider]

The Haynes I have, deal with: 1.CB350F, CB500 and CB500K1
                                            2.CB400F, CB550 Super-Sport, CB550K3 and CB550F2
Unfortunately Haynes did not deal with the differences, models for the European continent had. That has been the cause of frustration for years.
