    F/S 1974 Honda CB360

    Ahh okay. The 360 swing arm is already long to begin with… I wonder what the point of extending it was.

    Swap in 069a carbs, ditch PD carbs?

    Thanks for your input, that makes sense. The 550F came with the 069A carbs, which were sinister to the 022A carbs, which had the vacuum ports on the manifold vs on the carbs, like the later style PD carbs. The main benefit of the older carbs (069A and 022A), is that tuning jets are more...

    Looking for a friend (not that kind) - Bay Area, California

    Of course someone from the Bay Area is talking about people being robbed :) Anyway, I’m in SF, but I ride a 550. Good luck!

    Pamco ignition + kickstart

    Anyone running electronic ignition? Specifically the Pamco unit with E-advancer? Have you found that it is damn near impossible to kick start the bike when engine is cold? I’m thinking the kickstarter just doesn’t crank out enough juice when the Pamco is installed? Anyone else experiencing this?

    CB550 Carb Boring Services- "Almost Free"

    Bringing this back from the grave! Rick, I can see from your website that you are still boring carbs... Wondering if you ever got enough candidates to jet your bored out masterpieces properly? If so, what are the recommended jet sizes for a 550 set up with pods and open exhaust? I’d like to...

    Swap in 069a carbs, ditch PD carbs?

    I came up on a fairly clean rack of 069A carbs, and wondering if it’s worth it to throw them on my 77 550K (which has the PD carbs). The 550 has an open 4 into 1 exhaust and pods (no airbox when I got her), and from my understanding the 069A carbs can create more power and/or are easier to dial...

    Cb450 Mikuni fuel lines

    FYI Murray’s dual carb kit for the CB550 will use VM34’s. He is working on a few other bikes, so the 550 will be available on the website in good time.
