Will an Air chamber from a CB550F work on a CB550K?
« on: August 31, 2007, 01:20:20 PM »
Honda shop said they could get one so I chopped up the old one.  Now they say they can't get one! I'm screwed!

Ebay has several for the 550F and '75 but the numbers don't match for the '77K. The F version looks SLIGHTLY different.

Does any body know if they will work?

Part# 17310-404-670

If anybody has one, I'll gladly pay.

Thanks, Phil

The air chamber and the rubber couplers are unique for the 77-78 Cb550K.

Can I have a motorcycle when I get old enough?
If you take care of it.
What do you have to do?
Lot’s of things. You’ve been watching me.
Will you show me all of them?
Sure.
Is it hard?
Not if you have the right attitudes. It’s having the right attitudes that’s hard.

Thanks for the help.

I've already bought too much stuff 'I thought' would work.

Thanks again, Phil

As TT said the 77/78 550 is different, all the other 550 are the same and even the 500 (but NOT the bit the filter fits in)
