Shock interchange for cb550
« on: December 14, 2005, 09:30:11 AM »
Since I cannot find cb550 shocks, what other models are interchangeable for a 74 550? (cb350, cb750)

Don't bother. They were rubbish when new and are 30-year old rubbish now.

The only ones that will fit are from the 500 - and they're worse...

Check with CMS.. They have newly-manufactured ones.
