Reviewers
were overwhelmingly positive in regards to the CB550 during the
1970s. And owners today are quite happy with these today. The CB550 4
garners a lot of respect.
Maintenance
Maintenance
on the CB550 is nearly identical to the Honda
CB750
and
can be completed, mostly, with common hand tools. Some specialized
tools, including feeler gauges, a timing light, chain breaker and
riveter, amongst others. Common maintenance tasks include chain
tensioning and cleaning/lubing, valve adjustment, rear brake
adjustment, oil and filter changes, etc.
Overall,
if common maintenance is performed regularly at the proper intervals
with quality parts, the CB550 is very reliable and has been reported
to be good for 100,000+ miles.

Alpha Red or Black. The gas tank stripe was red with a gold
pinstripe. The"550 FOUR" side cover emblem was gold. The

John McGuinness rides the electric future
Sun, 16 Jun 2013Jump onboard with John McGuinness as he heads from the start line on his Shinden Ni / Mugen electric motorcycle in the TT Zero race. One wonders whether Honda would have announced that it is actually a Honda if McGuinness had taken the win. There's certainly plenty of Honda money behind the bike.
Results From Day 2 Of World Superbike Testing At Phillip Island
Tue, 18 Feb 2014World Superbike testing at Phillip Island came to a close today, and when the dust settled, reigning champion Tom Sykes stamped his authority, setting the fastest time of the test at 1:30.239, just five thousandths shy of the outright lap record held by Carlos Checa. The time was set during the morning session of testing, though nobody was able to best Sykes for the remainder of the day. Eugene Laverty, who was fastest on day one, showed his pace was no fluke as he stayed near the top of the time sheets, ultimately finishing second behind Sykes, with a best time of 1:30.513.
