« on: August 29, 2023, 05:07:33 AM »
Good day

Any suggestions photos apreciated.

Kindest regards to all.

CB500 four didn't have dual disc stock in the US. I don't think the right fork leg was setup for it either. Cb550 fork lowers from 74-76 are a direct fit though...

Despite the mounting point for dual discs, they did not. You can add them by using an extra set of stock components mounted to the opposite side forks. You may have to adjust the spacing, and if you desire to reuse the stock speedo, there is a solution for that too.

You are in Europe, yes?
