Ok, just need a confirmation here - the eBay ad says up to 1976, so I asked Cruzinmage if this would fit a 77 cb550f2 and he says no, and that he doesn't yet have a kit that fits this year/model.  Is he playing it safe and you know the kit will work, or will I have to stick with that DSS kit I bought?

Trigger:
He is playing safe because the carb for the 1976 CB550 F1 is the same carb for the F2. It is only the CB550K3 that is different. It is always better to give Cruzinmage the carb number.
DSS is a member of this forum, so i do not think he will give you a refund because you have found them cheaper ;) You only have some 0'rings needed so just order the Viton 0'rings. There are many company's selling Viton on ebay.

Trigger:
Just been looking at the pictures of you bike you posted and it is a bit of a bitsa. It has a F2 tank but, K3 side panels. Are you sure that this is a F2 or is it just the frame is stamped F2?

JustcallmeMrT:
Not entirely sure, I know it has had an engine swap - I'll post the numbers later and hopefully we can figure it out. 

Trigger:
The F1 and F2 engines are the same unit. It will be only the numbers that will be different. Unless it is a 500 unit.
Here is a model guide, but this is USA>>> http://www.sohc4.net/cb550-model-guide/
