Honda CB550
« on: January 31, 2011, 09:15:35 PM »
So i love the way the marving exhaust sounds but they only make it for the 500 and not the 550 does anyone know if the heads are that much different between these bikes cause them being only 50ccs different i wouldnt think there would be that big of a change.

Thanks in advance!

Same! You can exchange exhausts between the 500 & 550.

Will it rob it of performance if I put the 500 exhaust on it??

no your good... the only engine diff is that the 500's cylinders are of a smaller diameter.

Just another confirmation, but the other direction - I have a 550 header on my 500 with no big issues.
