Cheers trig, do you buy the ck1145 from silvers or just trawl the web for the best deal ?.
Glad I asked the question though initially, it's been an interesting debate.

Yes it's been an interesting debate on both sides of the pond ( usa&uk). The guys in the USA have said exactly the same thing that I should be using the CK 1145 pack not a set with all slanted oil grooves. They are also advocating a double sprung steel disc , I guess to quieten the rattle ?.
Will be taking up with David silver spares in the new year.

Hi Julie, I purchased the bike from James H and he sent me the parts for the clutch confirming they are the discs for the bike and from David silver spares.
So hopefully all ok.Do you ask for any specific reason ?

Good answer to the question. I will fit as fig A. Keeps everyone happy and makes sense. Really appreciate the input. Many thanks Paul

I received a post back from the us site today stating the complete opposite - they referred to a tech bulletin which I have asked for a copy. It's a lack of confidence issue I guess trig, plus a habit of a working lifetime of clarifying everything with all and sundry before work proceeds. Its all a bit confusing to someone who has never delved into a motorcycle engine before and wants to ensure the bike is preserved for years to come.  Cheers Paul

Hi trig, nurse Julie.
I think prior to Xmas you asked me to clarify near side or offside. I confirmed offside looking into the basket, which is what the extract you showed on the photo seems to indicate. If that is the case then the friction discs go in as pic A - agreed ?.
I asked the same question on the USA site but no one has replied at all which was surprising, nor has David silvers come back which again is a little disappointing.
Which manual do you use as the ' haynes' manual is far from adequate and quite a disappointment.
If you can just confirm the above I'll get on rebuild. Appreciate your assistance on this.
Regards

Offside / brake pedal side , looking directly into the clutch.

Hi Graeme 77, interesting topic. I am in the process of stripping my cb750 clutch. I have asked the question about the spiral oil grooves and trigger has let me have this picture which appears ( unless I am looking at this the wrong way) to show the spirals going in this direction /?.
I am totally confused by it all I have to say. I am viewing the clutch from the right side of the bike.
Any chance you can offer me some advice on this ?. I have posted just recently with the full query if that helps on the 750 forum.
Regards
Paul

How interesting. Really appreciate that. I shall try and find out why the grooves are situated as they are and hopefully add a post.
Thanks for your input on this.
Regards

Hi trigger, you mention a double plate , was this the plate to make the clutch quieter that I have heard of, I don't think there is a double plate in mine but I will double check before putting back together. I won't rush this as yet as I'm a tad confused on the disc issue at present. I may photo the existing for comment ?

Crikey pic A ? - surprised at that !. Does the basket spin clockwise ( looking at bike from right side ). The outer (7th) plate on the clutch I removed was I'm pretty sure as pic B so a bit confused now ?.
Can you elaborate on the whys and where fores as to why they should go in a particular direction and what are the pitfalls of placing the 'wrong way'.
There is a YouTube ( the only one I found) by an Aussie guy and he I'm sure placed the discs as pic B , I will however watch again.
In the interim I'd be interested to know the 'tech ' stuff though as I'm on a steep learning curve on this bike.
Kind regards
Paul

Hi guys, I'm after a bit of advice. I have just stripped the clutch down and have 7 friction plates ( existing) 6 of which have perpendicular grooves and the outer disc with the wider tabs has grooves or swirls running out at approx 45 deg. The replacement plates (7 no) all have grooves running out at 45 deg. When looking at the basket from the right hand side of the bike does the basket / clutch spin clockwise ?. If so do the discs fit as per sketch B ?- this would mean the discs would be facing you as shown when inserted into the basket. I assume this is the case as this would allow oil to be thrown away from the plates more easily ?. It's the first clutch I have ever stripped so just want to ensure its put back correctly.d The manuals simply do not show this level of detail that I can see.
Look forward to any pointers / advice / decent YouTube links etc.
Paul
Ps the picture C indicates the pattern of the grooves on the 6 discs removed. The 7th outer disc is similar to B.

By way of a comparison Simon, I wouldn't mind calling over one day as I've literally never met a another Honda (cb750) owner. We are not a million miles away either. I'll message you to set up soon if ok with you.

Ah that's why it needs to be on the side stand ?. I thought it was something to do with the oil level !.
