Title: Pedometer trip grommet.
Post by: Sesman on November 03, 2021, 11:37:15 AM

Help please.

Anybody know from where I might source a trip reset grommet? It’s for a 500K2, but the 750 is the same.

Thanks.

CB 750 faces who is a sponsor of this site if you look at the top right of the home page or link below.
Not cheap though.

Thanks Ash.

The one on mine is torn and very brittle. I’m going through Green 500 making ‘improvements’. Currently cleaning out the tank and carbs ::).

Clocks are off to Peter Horton and I’m replacing the clock holders with S/S items with new rubbers.

Cheers

Sorry .. The only decent one I have is on the K2 clocks I a putting on my K0. They are off  actually off a CB500T by the way .. basically the same clocks. Often available a lot cheaper on eBay 'cos it's a lowly CB500T.

Not cheap but available ... not sure if Trig & Julie  buy regularly from him and could obtain for you Phil.

Thanks, Ash.

Something to think about, but as you say bloody expensive.

May have to rethink this one.
