Some time next year I will be attempting to put on a new wiring loom, CB 500/4 1974, but my ignition key is in between the clocks. All the looms I have seen has the ignition barrel under the tank left side, anyone know how I can be sure I get the right loom.

Your ignition barrel SHOULD be down on the left hand side as you sit on it, under the front of the tank, looks like a previous owner has fitted the later 550F/K3 ign switch and warning lights. It may also possibly be an import from the states, Bryan J will know for sure if you send him your frame number, the switchgear on the left bar looks like a later one as well:o

Difficult to tell from the pics but the only 500 that had the switch there was the 500K3 that never came to UK but did get to some European countries. If its a UK 500 somebody has fitted a complete 550K3 front possibly after a crash

The previous owner did do a lot of changes,4 into 1 exhaust,red white and blue colour scheme,he said he put a racing cam in, the swing arm is not original and thats probably why a 98 link drive chain didnt fit but a 100 link did.

Regarding the wiring loom do you reckon a 550 would fit, theres no comeback on replies, thanks for the info tho'.
