Front Brake Compatability
« on: May 09, 2010, 11:57:38 AM »
Hey guys, I have a 1975 CB550 and my master cylinder is leaking, my front brake switch is broken, and my bleeder nipple is stripped out. I figure it would probably be cheaper to buy a whole new front brake setup then a new switch, a rebuild kit, and a bleeder nipple. So I was wondering what bikes can I trade the front brake system out with.

For instance I just saw this on craigslist http://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/mcy/1713601710.html

I doubt that a 1970 CB175 front brake system and my 1975 CB550 would be the same but if it is then that will make me feel better about picking up the bike!
Its hard to be wrong when you know nothing!
