CB550F Pic Request
« on: February 24, 2017, 03:59:10 PM »
Hi fellas,
  I'm getting ready to reassemble my 550. It is a '74 550K but I will be using a frame from a '75 550F because the original frame had some rot and I was able to score a solid 550F frame for $20. I've learned that the right side peg, rear brake arm, kickstarter and rear brake switch mount are different on the K/F models (I've already acquired these parts). Can someone please upload a quality close up pic of this area of the 550F to help me with reassembly? The exploded views from online parts diagrams are not much help, nor is the service manual.

Thanks,
Tom

The frame is also different down  at the tube that the brake shift sits in.   You'll have to figure out a return spring setup.

I sent him some last night.  I think there will be some custom fabbing necessary
