1971 CB500
« on: November 19, 2008, 01:58:16 PM »
Hi folks... I was wondering if anybody out there knows if the first year CB500 came with the turn signal alarm/beeper that was on the later CB550 models?
I am trying to find this out before I purchase the bike.
Thanks in advance.

I'm not aware of any audible turn signal "beeper" that was stock on any Honda of this era.  They were all added aftermarket.
