CB450K0 valve stem seals

<< < (2/2)

There's a lot of confusion over this Ash. The parts book does not show the seal nor the valve guides. The part I require is 14791-283-010 that goes with the early valve guides. It is an umbrella seal that does not fit below the retaining clamp. There are two different types of valve guide as in the photo.

Mine are the items at the top of the picture and are for engines up to 1011935. The guy in the Hondatwins article has the opposite problem to me in that he has the later valve guides and the early seals. The two valve guides also have the same part number to add to the confusion. I don't think Honda had got it's act together on parts at that point. Davo is probably right, I will just have to pay the price.

There is also a part that I do not know will fit but looks correct 14791-292-000, cmsl say it fits the K0 but after what engine number?

Hmm not sure ...may be worth PM' ing Jensen on here Roy  ...or as you and Dave say just take it on the chin and accept the ripoff price. Guess I have this to come :(

I have put an order in with DSS and ordered some other stuff with them to save the postage. They were a bit cheaper than CMS plus the postage is a lot less. Only problem is all the bits I ordered are 2 weeks special order so it's job stopped yet again. Name of the game with these things as some of these parts sneak up on you even though I thought I had everything bought before I started. The big problem here is the Honda parts book has a great many errors and parts missing. Plus there are many part changes along the way that all have the same part number. Confusing to say the least. I would have been better fitting the easily obtained later valve guides and seals, but I went to a lot of trouble to locate the correct year parts. Down to experience again, my feet are full of bullet holes.
