Rearsets CB550 F2 supersport
« on: May 29, 2015, 06:17:45 AM »
I'm looking for some rearsets that fit on an CB550 F2 supersport.
Are there some of the shelf sets that are bolt on?
Or do I have to make some adapters to make it fit.

Al examples and suggestions are welcome.

It's pretty easy to make bolt on adapters for after market rear-sets that secure with long engine mount bolts. With a bit more effort you can have adjustability too.

You will need adaptors as there is no direct bolt on for your model.

You don't happen to have patterns for those laying around do you?  How thick did you go with the aluminum?

Not anymore but they're not difficult to make.
The plate was 10mm or 12mm thick.
I'll check and confirm.
