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.

2013 AIMExpo: No-Mar Tire Changer – Video
Thu, 24 Oct 2013Tired of dinging up your wheels when you change your motorcycle tires? The No-Mar Tire Changer booth at the American International Motorcycle Expo in Orlando, Fla. offered up some options that may brighten your day.
475cc NS400R. Marquez and Spencer.
Wed, 13 Nov 2013Winter may be here but I seem to be as busier than ever, maybe the economy is finally turning around. At my last UK track day of the year I had some fun testing this little beauty. It’s a late eighties NS400 triple bored out to 475cc and it felt sweet as I zinged round the GP Arena track at Silverstone. Being stripped bare to reduce weight gives it a very respectable power to weight ratio which means it could live with 600s (on the twisty bits at least).
