CB500/550 / Re: fuel taps
« on: December 11, 2015, 09:53:14 AM »
There are 3 different type of tap fittings to the tank

(1) two screws inside the bowl on the bottom
(2) small threaded boss on the tank
(3) large threaded boss on the tank

I believe that for 2 &3 there can be either one or two fuel outlets but not sure.

Things vary by year and country sent to so those details might help

The reason its difficult to find separate is that all the parts suppliers i knew only stocked the shaft with bearing, also its a real swine to press off

Basically you may have the slides "hanging" on the adjusters so thatthey are still open a bit even with the tickover screw unadjusted all the way

About the only drum brake that would fit without  a lot of machining would be the CL450 1970-73 and the only place you will get those bits is the USA

Great bikes as long as you remember to clean out the centrifugal oil filter under that round plate on the clutch cover---Also put the plate back on right as oil goes through a hole in it into the clutch cover and on elswhwere

From memory a 6mm keensert uses a 10mm tap so an 8 would at a guess be 12mm tap and i am not sure there is enough metal around the holes for that

 Any 10w30 is OK and the only way to test the seals is put oil in and see if it leaks out

CB750 / Re: Insurance on frame number
« on: November 30, 2015, 03:45:29 PM »
 To register a bike that is not on the DVLA website E.G. an import or one that has never been issued a V5 you need an MOT and an insurance certificate. As there is no registration number yet you get an insurance certificate with the frame number on it BUT these tend to last only 30 days and cost the same as a year so you need to get a Year of Proof of Build letter(can take 8 weeks), an MOT certificate(personally i think it best to trailer to MOT just in case you need to fix things), get all the DVLA paperwork filled in and then get the insurance so that you have the maximum time for DVLA to piss you about
