Caliper? Identification
« on: April 09, 2014, 06:05:58 PM »
I am having a bit of a spring clean out and found a caliper that looks like a CB550 but is 10mm smaller in width. The arm/bracket are identical to a CB550 and fits the arm/bracket a treat . Is also marked with TOKICO Y on the front. Anyone have a clue to which Honda this is from? Sorry, but sill can not work out on how to post a photo.

Trigger is the name of my old and trusted CX500B. I have had this bike since 1982 and is now on its 4th time round the clock. Yes, she has had a few engine re-builds and a ton of alternators.

The 250(G5)360, 400 four, 500 twin and four all had the same caliper so youve got me there, only real way is a picture withe a known 500/550 alongside to compare

Cheers Bryan. Will email pictures to another member and ask him to post for me. Oddjob, the CX is still popular. I bought one for £50 in 1992 and sold it last year at 55 times the price of what i payed for it.
