Hi All
not been on for a while, now have a CB500 1973 to go with the 750, and taking top end down. could anyone please recomend a top end gasket set? (hopefully complete) :-)
thank you
John

Johnwebley:
I can't

But most do not contain the rubber pucks,

Also the valve stem seals can be a bit iffy

Might be worth buying those separately

No matter what set you need thicker O rings at the headgasket than those in the set

Does this apply to all gasket sets Bryan or just relating to this particular model? I will be putting the top end back together on my CB550 in the next month or 2 and it would be good know if I’m going to need to source some different O rings.
