Topic: CB550 compatible pipes

[TheHulk]

Hey all. When rebuilding my 77 CB550F 5ish years ago, a friend and I had to fix some broken welds and rusty holes on the OEM pipes. They held firm until last weekend when I tried to remove them for easier access during a repair, and my cylinder 1 header snapped off from the muffler.

I am heading to a "Motorcycle Graveyard" on Sunday to try and source another set of pipes before I decide to either salvage the ones I have, or upgrade to something better. Obviously trying to keep the budget tight.

Are there any other models that will fit the 550f? Doesn't really have to be 4-1, I'd settle with anything at the moment to keep me riding. Would a 350/400/650/750 set of pipes work?

Thanks!

Possibly 500K and 550K EXCEPT K3, if you make different mountings or adaptors as the F has different rear footrest hangers.

EDIT
When Motad were in production the 500 and 550 four 4 into 1 systems were all the same system with differing silencer mounting brackets
