Wow. #1 ain't coming off by itself. You have any trouble with choke cable operation between 2 and 3 such as binding? Maybe yours isn't set up like mine.

shiznits75: Cool, could you send me a link, as i'm not really sure what you mean?!?!

BVCB650: I recently changed my cable and its running smoothly. Had A LOT of binding with the one that was on before. Maybe try changing your cable!

Thanks

Shiz if you can confirm that those fit a 550F I could see about getting you guys a deal on $$.

Already checking things for moham's 550 ninja hybreed bike.


EDIT - Nevermind UNI guy called me back. $47.00 for a set + $5 shipping.
