Hi Davad, Welcome to the group!

First off get a Clymer or Honda shop manual.  They'll help you familiarize 
yourself with parts & functions of your bike & give step-by-step instructions 
for repairs and maintenance.

Not all bikes have an inline fuel filter. The petcock/valve on your gas tank 
has a screen & a bowl you can check for dirt

Fram oil filter #CH6009 can be found or ordered at your local auto parts store.

UNI makes a nice foam reusable air filter #NU-4062 
http://www.unifilter.com/street-bikes/honda-street-bikes/

Motorcycle oil can also be found at an auto parts store too. (I'll let someone 
else cover that topic)

If the bike runs you don't have to rebuild the carbs. We're big fans of 
"Seafoam" gas treatment.

Everyone loves pictures & is always happy to help.

Hi guys, and if you are around, thank you PAUL for all the great info on your 
site. It is people like you that make the internet a great place. 


Okay, so I have a 1983 Honda Night Hawk 550. She turns over but only with a lot 
of cranking. I am taking it upon myself to do some, if not ALL of the work, 
though her carbs scare me.


I bought the oil, pregapped plugs, and some carb cleaner. I plan to watch 
youtube videos and borrow or rent or buy an air compressor. And yes, I am a 
doctor doing brain surgery on himself because no, I have no experience.


My questions are, can anyone tell me what the part numbers and or places to buy 
the oil, air, and fuel filters? I can get them from a local shop, but it will 
take a long time and they are outrageous in everything. 
Just the worst. I'd actually pay but they are such criminals, I don't want to 
give them my money. Its that bad. And I am not being unfair. So, if you know by 
any chance the type or name or part number of those filters, I would much 
appreciate any input.
I love my Donah. I know, silly acronymic name, but I do want to do a good job. 
We had a great summer and I want to make sure she runs properly.


Thanks again for any and all info.


Dave D.
