1983 Honda CB550SC Front Tank Cushions & Side-Stand Rubber
The rubber choices for the 1983 Honda CB550SC cover two locations: the front tank support and the side-stand cushion. Two tank-cushion alternatives share a replacement reference, but neither is a bundled pair. Match the mounting location before choosing the rubber.

This aftermarket front fuel tank rubber cushion replaces Honda OEM 17611-KE8-000 on the listed Honda CB-series applications. It mounts to the frame and supports...
Choose the mounting location before the cushion alternative
Front tank cushions reference 17611-KE8-000 and are sold individually. The side-stand rubber references 50548-356-700 and serves a different assembly, so keep its replacement decision separate from the tank support.
The genuine and aftermarket tank cushions both identify 17611-KE8-000 and the front tank support. Their descriptions also mention the earlier 17611-286-000 reference. Compare the fitted rubber and mount shape before choosing either; the shared number does not describe a combined purchase or an additional rear cushion.
Count the mounts being repaired
Both tank-cushion products are sold individually and describe two used on most applications. Inspect the actual front support positions and select the number needing replacement. Keep the side-stand cushion separate: its reference and location do not make it a substitute for tank mounting rubber.
Choosing parts for your CB550SC
Are both tank-cushion options genuine Honda?
One description explicitly identifies a genuine Honda part, while the other identifies an aftermarket replacement. Both reference 17611-KE8-000 and name the 1983 CB550SC. Use those stated identities when choosing between the separate products.
Does one tank-cushion order include two rubbers?
The descriptions state sold individually. Their two-per-motorcycle note is qualified as applying to most applications, so compare the fitted mounting points and count the needed replacements rather than treating that usage statement as a two-piece package.
Which rubber is listed for the side stand?
The side-stand cushion references 50548-356-700 and explicitly includes the 1983 CB550SC. It is described for the stand, while the two 17611-KE8-000 options support the front of the fuel tank.
