Hello Trigger,

here's a copy of my post from 24th March 2017 offering the parts first to members.


Hello all,

I'm having a garage spring clean and have some CB500 Four parts to sell.

Hi,
thanks for the reply.

If you care to read the listings you will see that there is already a bid on the tank badges.

Also if you are able to digest and understand the item descriptions you will see that shipping is possible.

The parts are in the UK not the Czech Republic.

CB750 / Re: CB750 mpg
« on: August 18, 2017, 08:21:24 PM »
I only ask because my F1 also had poor fuel consumption of around 35mpg when I first bought it.

After a service and tune up including carb synch the fuel consumption problem was still the same.

Met a bloke on a F1 at the Moto Piston rally in Santander and he told me to renew the needle jets with genuine Honda items. He said they would need renewed about every 12,000 to 15,000 miles to maintain decent fuel economy.

He was correct, on a recent 3,000 mile round trip to Ireland I averaged 52mpg. :)

 

Is that just the jets or needle and jets.?
Last tank of fuel on my F1 worked out at 40.2mpg but more often than not 37-39 but I am not exactly gentle with it.

That's the slide needle and needle jet (supplied as a set from Honda, part number 16012 392 004)

Hi,
just uncovered some old CB500/550 parts in my garage.

For sale to members first, then I'll put them on ebay.

CB750 / Re: Head gasket sealing?
« on: April 23, 2017, 05:02:31 PM »
I've never used sealer whatsoever anywhere with OE gaskets on Honda motorcycle engines.

Make sure mating surfaces are spotlessly clean and dry and also oil free and your good to go.

Have fun!

Hi Martin,

it's possible to fit a Givi wing rack to your CB750F1.

See photos.

Thanks for your comments regarding the parts.

I'd hoped somebody would put me right regarding what they fit.

I also suspected the alternator cover was not CB500 but included it as a 'red herring' part.

In the meantime anyone interested in buying any of  the parts may view them at TD6 postal code up to September after which time I shall list them on ebay.co.uk.

Not sure what the crate was originally intended for but it takes weight of my Norton Commando OK when I adjust the isolastics!
