CB550F (US model) rear wheel cush rubbers
« on: January 23, 2011, 09:41:58 AM »
None of the usual suppliers (David Silver, CMS, Old Bike Barn) have them and there seem to be no pattern parts available. Any thoughts on how I can replace them (the ones I have just taken out are not the healthiest).

Ta.

I've never heard before that somebody had to replace them. Are you sure they are worn?

Unfortunately, these are for the 76 model and I have the 77, which has four single rubbers, rather than the set of four big ones and four small ones.

Sorry! I have a '76 and didn't know they changed 'em.
