im a big guy and i got this 76 cb550 cafe it seems like it does not have enough torque and they do not offer a bigger rear sprocket for the 550 but for the 750 they offer alot more sizes just wandering                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         thanx for any info

In short....no.

550's have smaller bolts holding it on.  The spacing of those mounting holes may be a tad off as well.

Also.....too many teeth!  Your acceleration would be great, but the bike would only go about 60 mph flat out.

Sprocket Specialists can help you out.  41 tooth is the max you should really think of going.  Do a google search for them.

Oh....how about an introduction...please?
