Honda-SOHC

I’m just servicing some carbs for a pal as they’re gritty and a bit nasty although look clean. Upon disassembly this fell out of them. I don’t recognise it and can’t find it in a diagram and don’t actually think it goes with this set!
Anybody recognise it at all?

It’s concave one way and pointy on the other, looks a bit lite the top of the ‘T’s that sit in the lifters but obviously isn’t and I simply can’t place it.

Any idea anyone?

I can't make it this year,

But if it happens next year

A definite possibility

OK John. We'll do it again for sure, if people want it. 👍

I’ve started to connect things back up on my 360 and I thought that I had taken plenty of notes and pictures but I am a little stumped as I actually didn’t take enough.

In the wire cluster that sits by the fuel tank, I have one spare wire, there doesn’t seem to be anywhere for it to connect?

I also have two spare wires branching off the main harness near the front off the bike.

I’ve looked at what needs to go back on the bike and I can’t see what these wires would be for, could they be spares and not used? I find it strange that I didn’t get a picture or note it down somewhere but this is my first ever attempt and I have no experience so could easily have missed it, any help would be greatly appreciated. I’ve had a good look at the pics that I did take and it does look as though the two wires from the harness could be unused, I can just see one poking through that could be it and it does look a bit weathered, as if it maybe wasn’t connected and covered?

Maybe I didn’t notice the one in the cluster if I started unplugging wires it could have gone unnoticed?

It’s a 1974 with front drum brake if that makes any difference.

Any thoughts???

Good work there Ted! Had to do similar work on my replacement shoes on the 550 except they weren’t binding when fitted.👍

Out and about

In the hilly part of Lincolnshire that the nurse never tells us about

OK,I maybe telling fibs

But it's a lovely day
