Cb550 Throttle Return Spring

[sxecafe]

I just realized my carbs weren't shipped with a return spring and it seems like Honda doesn't make one any longer. Cant find one on ebay...Anyone remedied this situation.

The parts fiche for the CB550 carbs does not show a return spring?????? >>> http://www.westernhillshondayamaha.com/fiche_image_popup.asp?fveh=123310&section=2036175&year=1976&make=HONDA&category=Motorcycles&dc=3206&name=CARBURETOR

It's number 15 on that fiche.

WAY to expensive, but here is one...

Might want to try to find some motorcycle junk yards and see if any of them have one. Here is a link to one thats local to me that you could call http://www.newmotorcycleparts.com/

Else, you could try to call bike bandit and see if they have something comparable. they may be able to find something that will work but may not be 100% perfect.

I know... I have seen that dude's listing. He is off his BALLS if he thinks that's a price for it. Although, it's classic econ in play. If you cant find one or dont have the brain to figure out another way... Im sure someone will eventually pay for that.

I have a few near me too. They are next on the list but I am asking here and another few guys around me that I know personally before I go to the salvage yards.

If youre not in a huge hurry for it, we could look for one down at barber too..

I'll let you know how the weekend turns out. The guy I bought the frames from says he has one for $15. We'll see how it fends.

Got one today. Works perfect and only $15
