My first bike a 77 cb550
« on: June 20, 2016, 12:55:51 PM »
Hello all, i recently picked up a 77 CB550 its a work in progress, I'm new to motorcycles but I've worked on cars for awhile. But anyways she seems to idle high and is a little sporadic, i think the carbs might need some tinkering. Also, either has a electric draw or a bad battery not sure which one. I'm in the middle of upgrading to a solid state rectifier/regulator and then getting a new battery. Aside from a few minor problems that shouldn't be to hard to fix, 8) She rides really nice. Just installed clip on bars and retro side mirrors. Side note i have all the oem parts if anyones looking for something i might have it anyways thanks for looking! 8)
