Topic: CB550F '76 - 1st Rebuild

you won't find an exact replica of the 550F muffler. also a stock used one is very hard to find, it will be a long search. if you really want a stocker, probably the best thing is to get a temporary replacement and then keep looking for one.

if you are willing to replace the whole system then delkevic makes an alternative at a very fair price.
but you probably want to keep the original header which is a very characteristic design, right?

A lot of mufflers combine the 4/1 collector and muffler as one part. This is not the case with Delkevic as their muffler is separate. It has a large diameter and have been wondering if it will fit the large dia collector output from the 550F pipes. There are a couple of different mufflers that are available as a separate part.
I have an F but the pipes are away being fixed so I cannot measure, but think like above it's about 60mm dia. and there is a gasket there.
