Looking for cb550 super sport rear brake lever moderate emergency
« on: February 27, 2017, 07:35:17 AM »
Hey guys, I know this is not the right part of the site to post this but I'm in medium crisis. I just finished final assembly of a 77 cb550 cafe/brat build for a bike show in my city this weekend but 'Oh no' of course my standard 550 rear brake lever doesn't fit around the super sport 4-1 I acquired for it. If someone here has 75-78 supersport rear brake lever that I could buy and get shipped over for thursday it would be a favour most grand.

Not sure this is what you seek, but if so, it's yours. PM me an address and I'll wing it up there (slight rust and I can clean it quickly then still post tonight, or you can deal with it Weds after arrival).

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of it's victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S. Lewis

  If you fitted an F model exhaust to a K model frame, the lever *might* not be enough to fix your issue. The F model has a rod or bung or whatever it's called on the outside of the frame that moves the brake lever out.
