Cb550 front wheel

<< < (2/2)

Oddjob:
Had this discussion just recently, F2 and K3, essentially the same bike for different uses, used flanged nuts with no lock washers. 500 and 550f1 used plain nuts with lock washers like pictured. Either or, I’d stay with the lock washers personally. Where’s the bearing retainer btw? Along with the dust seal.

Towsejames:
Bearing retainer and seal was removed for fitting new bearings. (It’s the only photo I had).

I’ve refitted now with the original flanged nuts and no lock washers but applied a small amount of loctite and torqued up.

That’s fine. Either will do and it’s in keeping with the original method used on that model.
