Ok finally taken the plunge . I have several CB's 450 and 500/4 550/4
Have finally found the time to get one or ? up and running .
  For some reason I like the honda 4s over most others.
Figure I 'll get a 550/4 running before Christmas . drag bars ,cafe fairing ,maybe a solo seat . Other than that I'll keep it stock .
That is with the exception of electronic ignition.
Did the CB550 ever come with a disc brake ?
Of course I'll have many more question in the future .
Nice site ..

Oh by the way I'am north and east of Kansas city Mo .

They ALL had single disk brakes on the front, drum rear.
