CB350/400 / Main bearing and primary guides advice
« on: July 12, 2023, 08:03:26 PM »
Hi,
I've read a lot on this forum about 400-4 crankshaft bearings. Its a bit daunting to be honest! I hope I don;t need to replace them. In the link below are some pictures taken this evening. Do people think these need replacing ?

Also, I am fairly sure my primary chain needs replacing. When placed on a flat surface sitting on its side, the top links touch the bottom. I think this says "replace me"?
On the primary guides, the Haynes manual says minimum thickness 5mm. Mine are 6.1mm. Do people think that is good enough to reuse? It might be academic as I cannot find new ones anywhere!
Thanks in advance!
Bill.
