Vehicle Information
Honda CB550 Motorcycle - Street (1973-1978)
The Honda CB550, officially produced from 1974 to 1978, was a popular mid-range motorcycle known for its balance of performance and reliability. It was powered by a 544cc air-cooled, SOHC inline-four-cylinder engine, producing 50 horsepower. This engine, an over-bored version of the CB500, maintained its displacement and 5-speed transmission throughout its production run. Two main trims were offered: the standard CB550K and the sportier CB550F "Super Sport." The CB550K featured a classic four-into-four exhaust system and traditional styling. The CB550F, introduced in 1975, was distinguished by a lighter four-into-one exhaust and a "café racer" aesthetic. Minor year-to-year changes included updates like the locking fuel filler for the 1977 CB550K3 or decal changes for the CB550F2. FAQ:
