Retracing my steps paid off, when I've fitted new headlight brackets they mount onto plastic bushes so I had a break in the earth.  Moving the ground wires to some spare plugs fixed it!

Have you tried switching the front bulbs with the rear?

Tested the front bulb holders using a test lamp?

I think I'll try this today Ted, I'll plug in an original lamp first.  They were working before so with checking again before I go any further

My brother owned a CB250 G5 many years ago and, following some top - end work I remember the mechanic slackening one of the nuts above the cam box that, I think had a copper washer fitted under it. As I worked in a car workshop at the time I asked the purpose of this and he said that it was to confirm that oil was reaching the camshaft.

CB500/550 / CB500K2 carb bit
« Last post by AshimotoK0 on Today at 08:55:25 AM »
I give my wife bits to sell on eBay to keep her sweet and to promote tolerance of by obsession.

She listed a 500 carb plate and lifter rod and someone message to see if she has brass bushes etc ...see pic ..but I can't even see anything like that on my own set of 627B carbs so she can't really help him out. I thought he may have been getting confused with later PD carbs (that I have no experience with) but he says its for a 500K2... She told him to join us on here and ask for help  but it's difficult conversing details on eBay (phone/email etc)  for the fear that eBay police get onto you for attempting to deal without going through them. This would deffo have been a question for Ken !

I do recognise the other bits.
