    77 Honda cb550 electrical question...

    Thanks guys for all the feedback. As I mentioned originally I love riding my bike but when it comes to fixing these type of issues I'm pretty useless. This morning I will hook the bike up to a multimeter and see what the battery reads. From all the suggestions I think my best bet is keeping...

    77 Honda cb550 electrical question...

    Hi everyone, I'm hoping someone on this forum may be able to help me out. About a month ago I tried to start my bike and the battery seemed dead (nothing turned on). New battery installed last year. I was in a rush so I put the battery on a trickle charger and when I got home from work the...

    Ceramic Coating....

    It was a 4 into 2 exhaust from a 77 honda cb550 and the price was $300. Best price I could find by far. He made a mistake with the pricing and he said regular pricing is $350 but because he quoted $300 he would honour it. Take that for what it's worth.

    Ceramic Coating....

    So I got my pipes back from Rice Rocket and they did a great job. Hopefully these are as durable as everyone says. It took them a bit longer than they promised but overall I'm happy with the experience.

    Ceramic Coating....

    Flat black which should look pretty nice. Hopefully they do a good job.

    Ceramic Coating....

    Thanks for all the info guys. Exhaust was dropped off to Rice Rocket this past weekend. I should have it back within a week. I'll keep you guys updated once I get everything back.

    Ceramic Coating....

    Hi everyone. I have a 77 cb550 and the 4 into 2 exhaust was painted with high heat paint maybe 2 years ago and it's starting to come off in certain places (at the top mostly). I'm thinking I want something a bit more permanent and I thought ceramic coating would be the best option. That being...

    78 CB550 Crankcase filter question...

    So the hose for my crankcase filter broke (burnt actually) and I'm trying to find a new heater hose that will attach to the filter and the vent case on my bike. I can't seem to find this hose anywhere. I think the inner diameter needs to be 12mm. I may need an elbow or straight connector as...

    Honda 77 cb550f rear shock replacement

    This is not how the shocks were before I went over the bump. Everything was sitting higher but since then it's like the shocks are compressed or have given out.

    Honda 77 cb550f rear shock replacement

    I didn't realize these were aftermarket. Good to know. When the backside of the bike lowered it also blew a fuse so I'm assuming under the seat / rear fender a wire may have come loose so at this point the bike won't turn on and the backside is basically resting on the rear wheel. The guy who...

    Honda 77 cb550f rear shock replacement

    I don't know much about bikes but basically I went over a speed bump and the bike died or blew a fuse (main fuse was blown). When I got off the entire back section of the bike was much lower and almost sitting on the rear wheel. I assume the short happened when the wires for the rear light...

    Honda 77 cb550f rear shock replacement

    Where's the best place to get the Hagon's where I won't have to pay a ton for duty and shipping?

    Honda 77 cb550f rear shock replacement

    What about any of the shocks from dime city? There seems to be quite a few for around $100-$200 a pair.
