IIRC Roy, I have had to remove the paint on all the different brands / makes of pads I have fitted Roy and then apply the copper slip.

Both our UK CB750/4 K2's have a measurement of 65mm, the same as yours. Sorry, terrible pic 🙄. But you are not actually measuring the 'overall width' of the hub the way you are doing it. The overall width is actually 110mm measured across the flanges. Service bulletin #26 relates to the brake disc mounting bolts, not the hub itself.

Anorak's Corner / Re: Cleaning Engine Internal parts.« on: October 03, 2019, 07:02:57 PM »Always worth trying to save parts. You will know if they are beyond saving if you see any obvious damage or pitting in the metal after cleaning.I think the pictures makes the rust look worst than it is, but is diesel ok to use or should I be using other chemicals?Oh yes, photos do make rust look pretty horrific, I forgot about that 😀 If you think they are salvageble, a good soak in diesel and a scrub with a brush will be fine. Don't wash the diesel off after cleaning as it will leave a nice film of oil as protection. Then just bag up. 3561

I have seen a lot, lot worse but unless they are very rare, totally unobtainable parts, which they aren't, I wouldn't even bother. Surface / flash rust is ok to clean up but not rust that deep, the parts won't function correctly by the time you chisel off the rust.

CB500/550 / Re: Hyvo chain replacement« on: October 02, 2019, 06:47:04 PM »Sounds like an excellent idea 👍👍👍Mmmm, if it's knocking, its letting you know it's time, if not overdue, for a new chain. It will only get worse and may cause damage internally. But, I quite understand what you're saying, if you're not mechanically minded it will seem a daunting task. 3565

Full engine strip. Have you fully serviced the bike and synced the carbs to see if the noise lessens?
