Part: Ignition Condenser for Honda CB500K, CB550 and CB750 Motorcycles

Why You Need This: The ignition condenser is a standard "tune-up" part on any Honda motorcycle and is the most common failure part of the ignition system. Regardless of the condition of your vintage Honda CB500K, CB550, CB750 the condensers wear out. Yes, they do not physically move, however as an electric component they are prone to decay. The condenser's job is to keep the ignition coil charged under high speed and to keep the points from wearing out prematurely. A failing condenser will let the bike idle OK but tend to keep it from revving very high. Two condensers needed per bike - Sold in Pairs.

Installation Tip: A quick test to see if a condenser is failing is to watch the ignition points at idle speed on the bike in a dark place. If you see a bright spark at the points every time they open then the condenser is failing. However, a small spark every few seconds is acceptable. See the below article for more information:
