Greetings all. Figured I'd put up a few photo's of my 1974 CB550K, nothing fancy. The seat is the first one I made and is a little rough, but I'm working on two others to see which shape I like the best. I want something a little more like the shape of the tank. The signals and brake light I had lying around and these too will be swapped out, but will work for now. Magura clip-ons and Raask rear sets. The shocks are from a 79 750 and are a little longer than the stock ones. Pod filters, (yeah, I got bamboozled on these like some other folks here, to long). I changed to 115 mains and will probably bump the pilots from 38 to 40. I picked up the 4 to 1 with a megaphone muffler and am in the process of making an end cap for it. Also making an exhaust extension with a 45 degree bend for s&g's. For now I put the elcheapo tip on it. I had some 3/32" aluminum so I cut and rolled it to make a sleeve to fit in the tip and over the header, as the bolts to hold the tip on were pretty lame. Need to order a SS line and caliper fitting. I also need to pick up a new tach, the one on it only worked if you held it upside down and the other one I had has a broken spring. I'm going to bob the fender this weekend. I figure she'll be on the road in the next week or so.
