Project Board / Re: Mike's CB550 Project

Same method I've always used Ted. I use an old electricians screwdriver with a slight radius filled into the edges to prevent any digging in. I go very, very gently on the carbon followed by some wire wool and oil.

Best wishes to you Bryan in what has undoubtedly been a very tough time. As stated in other posts, this forum really is the best place to let off a bit of steam, we are all life experienced and fully understand the crap life can throw at us. Hopefully all the bad news is now behind you. Thank you again for all the help and advice you have given not only to me but also to everyone else on the forum.
Hopefully the sun will shine on you all from now on.

SOHC Singles & Twins / Re: CB360 Wiring question
« Last post by Craizeehair on Today at 10:32:28 PM »
A quick question for those in the know please?

I’ve got the wiring harness back on the bike and all the electrical components are now connected again.

Does anyone know if this bike will have daytime running lights? When I got the bike, the headlight wouldn’t work on low beam. I’ve stripped and cleaned the switch gear and now the low beam works but the front two indicators come on with a permanent low light. I initially thought that I had got something wrong but a quick check looks ok. I don’t want to start chasing a problem that isn’t there. From what I can see online, it does seem as though they could be?

Ted, if you can find any D7EV are the dogs doodads for the 500, it should have had newish D7EA in it when you got it, D7ES is the original and not available the A is same as S according to NGK. You should not be using the R type
So a resistor spark  plug when you have resistor plug caps does this cause a problem somehow ?

There are a couple of diferent posts about that recently on the US forum Ash, what they say makes sense to me in that a running prototype would be there before a pre full production set sent out to tease the dealers but not sure about Honda leting that out of the factory first

So far nobody knows. Why did you choose 'R' plugs?

I have no idea, I can't remember when I bought them either.

I do have a set of Denso X22ES-U plugs.

I think my bike had  NGK D7EA fitted .
