I installed everything into the bottom case and then placed the top case on it. I felt that it was the easiest method when I ran through it. But definitely figure out what works best for you and stick with that. That kickstarter is somewhat annoying to install. I remember messing with the...

I used the Three Bond 1194 to seal the cases. I believe it's the same product as hondabond or yamabond. You shouldn't need to apply any of the hondabond to the oil seals. The Three Bond liquid gasket starts to get tacky pretty quick. I would say you have about 10-15 minutes to get the case...

I ended up reusing the primary chain since there wasnt much slack. I did get a new timing chain though. I painted the cases separately. Let me know if there is something you need. If I get a moment this weekend, I'll IM you a list of some of the stuff that I have left over.

I'm still in the process of building my cb550 engine but it's stalled since we had a baby. But let me know if you have any specific questions. I basically replaced every bolt, washer, nut, bearing, etc. that I could find a replacement for as I reassembled it. So it's still somewhat fresh in my...

I have a set of Galindo Designs SuperBike grips that I bought but never used. Make me an offer if you want them.

All from my 1976 CB550. I think I am gonna trash them of no one wants them within a week. So if you need this stuff and are willing to pay for shipping...its yours. - gauges - pistons - rear sprocket - master cylinder

I bought these from Dime City Cycles but I ended up creating my own. $15

before you go off rebuilding the master cylinder or the caliper, try this... check the brake caliper bracket. it's bolted to the fork with 3 bolts and that bracket should pivot and swing freely. if it doesn't, if could cause squealing and some drag. looks like this...

I currently do not have the engine mounted in my CB550 frame and I was wondering if someone could provide me a picture and/or measurement between the engine/oil pan area and the bottom left side of the frame. I'm looking weld in a modern kickstand bracket which has the spring on the backside of...

Ok cool, so maybe I'm just over thinking the whole fuse question. So the kill switch I have is from the handlebars. A second hidden switch sounds like a good idea.

thanks honda53rider for your reply... So I bought a new Honda right-hand control for my 550 which has the off/run/off switch. And that switch is depicted at the top of the diagram. It will cut power to everything including the RFID module and the 611T relay so it doesn't leak power. The start...
