Topic: What the hell is it? CB550

Theres not much to be simplified with these things wiring unless you're removing a bunch of electrical bits... IE. turn signals, horn, bar units, etc.  If suddenly the switches aren't working on the bar(s), I would open them up, polish all the points/connections, and put some anti-corrode gel on them as well.  Did it to all mine and haven't had a single issue since.

Here it is shortly after I acquired it:

Someone gave me a tank exactly like this. Do you know what it's off? I think it might be a CL350 scrambler (72-74), but I haven't figured it out yet. I got the tank so I can try electro-cleaning the rust with a battery charger when time allows.

They said it was from a 350.  Not sure what type, probably a CL.  I thought it looked good on the bike.  He wanted like 70 bux for it though, so I gave it back and decided to go with the stock tank.

Any updates on this thing?

I've been in the process of moving.  I've got a trick gas cap in the works, but for now that's about it.  I'm promising myself to have it done by the 2009 Smokeout.  I've got the paint and such, just need to get my wiring and engine work going, then tweak some things from there.
