Anybody got a good quality spare cam carrier with caps (12010-410-000) that they are willing to part with for some cash. Would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

The cam is actually very good. But it would be as its much harder than the soft alloy, and its not picked up at all. Are these carriers still available new, as an eBay item may be no better than mine. If it needs changing now's the time I guess whilst its still on the bench. Cheers.

Have included a photo, hope its clear enough. Its the journal on the right hand side, the end float journal. Have cleaned it up with very fine wet & dry (absolute minimum) and checked with engineers blue (full contact with just the scores not bluing). If you run your finger nail across it, fine scores can be felt. Made the decision earlier to go ahead and assemble the engine which is now done. The engine turns over with a socket very freely with nothing binding. All the oilways have been run through with a guitar string, carb cleaner jet, then compressed air. Fingers crossed it will be okay. The decision was made easier because there is a frame kit fitted to the bike, so I can strip the top end in situ. Hope its all okay though. What do you think? Cheer Roy.

Hi. Just putting the top end back on an F2. Whilst cleaning all the parts and clearing out the oil drillings, I have found some damage to one of the journals on a cam carrier. The oil feed hole was partially blocked and that I assume was the cause. I have dressed the journal lightly with very fine wet & dry and there is definite scoring evident. How much damage can be safely accepted on this part, and if replacement is required would I have to replace both carriers and the cam? Cheers.

Okay sorted it. If anybody requires the correct seal the DSS part number is FDCBE-371-010P (Honda part number 53214-371-010). They are £2.95p plus the usual unbelievable postage charge. These are the ones with the steel centre core that the bearing sits on, with the rubber outer seal bonded to it. Cheers all and thanks for all your help and suggestions.

Yep sure enough, put the front together and the whole weight of the bikes front is on the rubber dust seal as its trapped between the spacer washer and the bearing. That surely cant be right. Can it? Anybody know where I can get seals like the ones in the Allballs kit. Thanks.

Thanks for the reply Trigger. Will give that a go. Was just concerned that this rubber seal will be trapped between the spacer and the bearing, making setting the bearing play a bit hit and miss. What I was expecting to receive was the older type seal with the steel inner like the ones supplied in the Allballs kit. Never mind will give it a go. Cheers.

Just got some seals for the taper bearings. They are not what I expected really and now I am not too sure where they go. The seal is like a U shape that looks like the spacer washer goes inside it. It that correct? If it is correct, that would mean the front end of the bike is supported on the rubber seal, or am i missing something. Cheers.

Wouldn't want to go any distance on that thing, the family jewels are at severe risk. You may also need a number plate for the UK. A non running show bike I think.

Just back from the Classic TT. Been to all the races, all the VMCC stuff, and generally all over the island. All been good except for one very strange thing, I did not see one single CB750 of any flavour anywhere on the island. Are CB750's getting rare or does nobody actually ride them anymore. I'm probably as guilty as the rest as mine stayed in the garage whilst I went on a CB1300.

Thanks for that info Trigger. Is it absolutely essential to fit the dust seals with taper rollers as I don't have any, and non were supplied with the kit. Cheers.

Green1 is right about alloy going black. I once put some carbs in that were really grimy. They came out nice and clean but black. They were a devil of a job to get shiny again due to being so intricate. Wont be doing it again since discovering vapour blasting, that makes them clean and shine like new. Not too expensive either.

Hi. Bit of advice required if somebody could oblige. Am about to change the head race bearings on my 750F2 for taper bearings. Have bought a set that has the two races (fairly obvious which is top and bottom due to the different sizes). My kit also came with a large steel washer. Does anybody know where this washer goes. I assume it's there to build up the stack height to match the original ball races. My guess is that it goes underneath the bottom race on the yokes, but it is only a guess. Help Ta.

Hi. Shame you have to let that beauty go. How much you looking to get?
