cb650 carbs better then cb550 carbs?
« on: June 19, 2008, 02:00:21 pm »
I have a 1980 cb650, and was hoping to put the carbs on my 1974 cb550. is there any real advantage to this? fuel accelerator?

i am not into the chopper look of the 650. so i am looking to take its advantages and apply them to my 550. any ideas?

thanks.

Put the 650 engine in your 550...?

550 50hp
650 61+hp

Just an idea. Easy swap, from what I gather...
No.
