1972 CB350F - Oil Filter Collar
« on: January 25, 2017, 01:58:21 PM »
Does anybody happen to have an oil filter collar, Part No. 15423-333-000 that they can measure the length and diameter for me?
These parts are still available, but at some cost, £30.48 plus the dreaded VAT, which does seem rather a lot for what appears to be a thick walled piece of tube, so I plan to knock one up on the lathe.

Thanks
Eric

If you're talking about the bolt that holds the oil filter housing to the engine, it's rather more than just thick walled tube! There is an oil pressure relief valve in it, which bypasses the filter if it becomes blocked, as dirty oil is better than no oil
If it's got tits or wheels, it's hassle, if it's got both, RUN!!!

He is talking about the collar that goes on the oil filter bolt Hairy, they are the same as the CB650.

Usefully it's not used on the 400 where the boss is an integral part of the lower casing.
