CBX550F 1983 , can'T find connecting rod bearings
Hello group , i know this is not a forum dedicated to the CBX550F but im trying my luck anyways ...
Im looking to find CBX550F 1983 rod bearings .... all the honda parts websites i found does not list the CBX550 and i am wondering where i could find a set of bearings ... maybe theyre the same bearing as another honda engine but i cant find the info yet.
I found main bearing journals online but can't find the rods ... anyone could help ? any pointers ? any part number ? any info helping me in my quest would be appreciated.
Thanks !!

The CB550 Nighthawk sold in the U.S. has the same motor. Connecting rod bearings are the same. Look for part-numbers 13215-MA7-000. Watch for the different codes, A,B,C,and D

Another place you might find some info is the VRRA. http://www.vrra.ca/
I know there are a couple guys racing the CBX 550. Racers always have spares.
Maybe join that website and post about your dilemma.
