Try it without the washer from the kit first, I seem to remember washer went on some models but not others.

as long as bearings adjust nice with no free play all is OK

Memory vague but seem to remember it was either the honda washer or the kit washer not both

More likely to be the pirahna playing up than the coil mate, have you got the bits to re-convert to points?

Thts the idea but use a "soft" drift and to get them all the way in use the old race as a spacer cos you can still get that out afterwards

The "inners" have different ID small to top big to bottom, washer goes onto steering stem before lower inner. Make sure you get the "outers" in right as once they are in up to the shoulder you cant get them out short of destruction

Not worth the cost as you still have to change it every 1500 miles

To be honest, unless you want to race or do high mileages i dont see the point(sic) in shelling out good money on electronics when the contact sets are as reliable as they are---yes they do need maintainence but they also rarely go totaly tits up and strand you in the middle of nowhere and yes i agree getting the gap and timing spot on can be a nause if you dont do the job regularly and have a good "feel" for using gauges but then practice makes perfect and you have to have a strobe to set the electronics which you dont need for the standard set up.

I'm guessing lots of folks will shout me down on this but i do low miles and live with the contact set up!

CB500/550 / Re: advice about exhaust on e bay
« on: October 28, 2008, 06:02:50 PM »
One problem you may have is the MOT as officially it has to be as quiet as a standard bike with an exhaust in good order, and that one looks a bit "open" to me. Does depend on your relationship with the tester tho' as some say that VOSA are way too strict and some stick to the letter of the law
