A few questions

<< < (2/7) > >>

Hi Conrad, I use comma eurolite 10/40 available from Frodingham motor spares local to us, I have had no problems with clutch slip using it. If your bike is a UK model it will be a K1 as the K2 was never imported here, most things are the same.

Trigger:
The K1 and K2 are the same bike but, the K0 500 has a different seat cover, seat pan, seat lock, main loom, sub loom, switch gear,. ear's and a smaller reflector.
If the bike has been sitting around on the tyres, they can flat spot and the rubber will go hard.

They are not. Actually the K2 sold in European markets (I believe not in UK) differs from the K2 sold in USA and had many things in common with the CB550K2 '76. Most likely his is a K1. Engine- and framenumbers will tell.

The eagle has landed, just need to wait for my neighbour to get home to help me get her out of the van. Then I will take some photos & see if I can post them.

Thanks for all the replies.

I will text you Mick then you can come & have a peep if you want.

Conrad
