I agree with Ash the Yellow pasivation is brilliant - how did you do the steel carb blanking plugs - presumably you had to remove them?
No one seems to have responded to your question about the brake pivot bar thing you are missing. I can't check my old master cylinder as I gave it to Simon who has since sold his 500.Bryan might know the answer in the absence of Ken.
Those carbs are amazing Dave. Plus you correctly yellow chromate passivated the parts .... unlike a lot of the pro carb 'restorers'. A lot of people argue that they were BZP originally but I have seen a NOS set of 400 carbs in their original Honda box and they were definitely yellow passivated. Problem is that components and memories fade
Should be rubber forthe lever to bounce against[/quoteSo in effect a 'soft stop' Bryan to prevent a hard metal to metal contact between the lever and body?
'Reassuringly expensive' as a mate of mine would say
