This is the smaller version of [[Honda]]'s 1983 inline Four, introduced in the Nighthawk 650 and Nighthawk 550 for 1983. The engines share crankcase castings, clutch, transmission and cylinder head. The 572cc 550 has lower primary gearing and the same 60mm bore as the 650; stroke is shorter; 50.6mm to 58mm. To work with the 50.6mm stroke, the 550 has shorter [[connecting rod]]s, crankshaft throws and cylinders. The crankshaft, designed for the 572cc version, is lighter with 1mm smaller diameter journals; the cases are machined to fit. | This is the smaller version of [[Honda]]'s 1983 inline Four, introduced in the Nighthawk 650 and Nighthawk 550 for 1983.
