MIKE550/4:
hi all

hope dave reads this but am sure you all know the answer

my f2 is on ebay and had a few offers ( some serious, some not )

question coming through e bay

i am adamant mine is f2 , i remember reading somewhere badges were changed on my bike though, dave lost them while riding ?

what are the main differences between f2 and the superport

is mine classed a 550 f2 supersport  or just f2

v5 says none of these

cheers

my bike

hairygit:
The 550 F1 And F2 were BOTH "Supersport" models, as were the 750 F1,F2, and for U.S. market, F3 ;D

MIKE550/4:
thank you

take it then the tnk  on my bike has been resprayed at some time then, would it have originally had the words supersport painted on the tank ?

deltarider:
Indeed, according to the picture in Honda's Parts List CB550F2 (1978-07-20) the F2 had Super Sport on it's tank. Other details tell yours is a F2 indeed.

Dave M:
Hi Mike.
It's definitely an F2 as everyone else has said, but they were also referred to as F2 Super Sport as well.
The bike had it's tank re-sprayed before I bought it and the "Super Sport" badges were not replaced. They should be just below the Honda badges on the tank.
It was one of those jobs that I meant to do but never got round to. Too busy riding the bike
