CB500/550 / Re: Tapered head bearings question

A while ago I was working at Holset engineering/ Cummins turbo's and was in their RD lab and there were a lot of turbo's in bits on a table. Talking to them they were Chinese copies of their turbo's, and I commented that no doubt they would be crap. The response was sadly not they were all bang on spec both on machining tolerances and material specs and about a third of the price.

Project Board / Re: how do I fit a black metal number plate to my motorcycle?

Its no different to changing anything else on a bike. I only got mine because I heard someone moaning about them on a post 72 bike.  :) No doubt I will go back to my old plate at some point, or get a American plate made up.

More likely the plate will not be flat after coming through the post. Mine had a 3inch roll diagonally on it. it looked like it had been through a set of rollers.

Man that Vessel JIS T driver takes me back  .. our local 5-star Honda dealer sold me mine in 1971 (Peters of Hull) Excellent bit of kit.

I wish you could still get them. I could do with some new ones.

If your HT leads look a bit grim do not bin them. Click on Alladins Cave and read Ash's coil fix.

Leave the complete front end off, remove the rear wheel and stand it up on the swing arm ends on a sack cart or dolly and a couple of you should be able to get it through the house. I've done it many moons ago. But you have plenty off time to think about that one yet.
