xsinclairx Posted May 15, 2021 Author Share Posted May 15, 2021 Minor update. New handlebars and new brake lines. Indicators installed, led bulbs in dash. I put a pressure switch banjo bolt in for the brake light. Genuine Suzuki intake boots and replaced some o-rings and rubber plugs in the carbs. I really really want a 4-1 for this thing and the only one I want is from Cycleworks in welly but that means riding there! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xsinclairx Posted May 16, 2021 Author Share Posted May 16, 2021 It sounds a lot better now the valve shims are done, it sounded like it had a cam chain rattle before. I desperately need to sort a shed. My workshop entrance is way to small to get the big bikes in and out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xsinclairx Posted June 12, 2021 Author Share Posted June 12, 2021 @a.craw4dthe top one is mine, doesn’t leave much clearance, would quite like to have it like the sparkly one out the side.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xsinclairx Posted June 23, 2021 Author Share Posted June 23, 2021 The bike is pretty much done. I just need to swap my good petrol tap over from the 750 to this and see if that will prevent the carbs over flowing. Seat recovered by Ingram upholstery. Can’t say I’m stoked with it but it’s certainly way nicer than it was! Side covers and guard used to be red. The worst colour on these 550s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xsinclairx Posted June 23, 2021 Author Share Posted June 23, 2021 I’ve still got to get new mirrors. Put the side covers on cam cover and some other small bits. Close up of the seat. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
