Lost CB500 Motor mounts. What mounts are the same?
« on: March 24, 2010, 10:07:09 AM »
I believe the 550 uses the same mounts but do any other bikes like the big 750 or 650? How bout the smaller bikes like the 400 or 350,360?

nope only 500 and 550, 550 rear bracket will fit but has a mount for the clutch cable end that you dont need on the 500

If in a pinch, you could maybe use some threaded rod ("all-thread") from the hardware, with nuts on both ends.
