Air filters for my 1974 CB550
« on: June 05, 2008, 07:21:50 PM »
I am looking for 4 individual air filters for my 1974 CB-550 bike. Many years ago I had a 74' 750 and used K&N air filters.
Currently K&N has a filter with a 38mm mounting flange, that is 2.5" long, but has a 3" outside Diameter. When I measured the distance between my carbs, it is slightly less than 3"

Has anyone else used these filters on a 550? is there enough space to fit them? or if someone knows of another simular filter that works, I would like to know...

Thanks!!!

the foam on the pods might squeeze enough for those pods to work.
