The Honda CBX 550F is a four stroke, in line four cylinder, sport tourer motorcycle produced from 1982 to 1986 by the Honda Motor Company.[3] The CBX550F II is identical apart from the addition of a half-fairing.[2] Although the model was designated 550 the actual capacity was 572.5cc.[3] The machine was noted for its use of inboard ventilated disc brakes, the discs themselves being contained within a "drum" type enclosure.[2] Front suspension was by oil-damped telescopic fork with air assistance and incorporating an anti-dive mechanism in the left fork leg.[2] Rear suspension was by Honda's own "Pro-Link" rising rate system, which allows the suspension forces to vary in accordance with rear wheel movement.[2] The machine was equipped with transistorised ignition and electrics were 12 volt.
