1978 was the last year of the CB550, which Honda made from 1974 to 1978. Honda replaced the CB550 in 1979 with the broadly similar CB650, which needed a completely new engine design, since the CB550's engine was the largest bore possible in the cylinder block that came from the CB500. The sources used for this page record no other change specific to the 1978 model year, so this page claims none. Neighbouring model years are linked from this page.
