You should of taken the tubes out before you put them in the tank. Why would you want to take the bank apart??

A good match is stainless steel pistons and genuine seals. Did find some stainless pistons for £12 each.

Lobo, I have spoke to a few 400 guru's worldwide on were this cable eye goes. I can not get a straight answer from anyone. Someone did say that it may be down to the country and model but, i can never remember having a engine in with one fitted. Maybe we will never know.
Nice paint on the engine Lobo :)

Cheers Mick, The bars i have are lower than the ones in the drawing/picture. I can not get the brake hose down between the clocks.
The bar type i have are the same as the KO in this link>>>  http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HONDA-CB500-FOUR-1971-MINT-ORIGINAL-CONDITION-2400-MILES-UNRESTORED-/331276440972?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2047675.l2557&nma=true&si=9nI746JaJXMHJumMOU2O9E1f6sg%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

Sorry, in the last picture.

Bitsa, you did not order stainless steel spokes with alloy or stainless nipples? The best is nickle plated brass for stainless ;)

James, you want to try and get the stainless steel spokes out of a wheel when they have used alloy nipples. That is when its time for the bolt croppers.

Bitsa, the best thing with using a solid insert is you can put it in with a little retainer. You can't use retainer on a helicoil.
1970 Bitsa? I thought back then you just wrapped a bit of tin foil round the thread and squeezed it back in.

Helicoils are only good for blind holes. For a non-blind hole your need solid insert. The helicoil will do the job but, what i have found is when you next remove the spark plug the helicoil will come out with it. Then you will have to get a solid insert. Better to do the job right the first time ;)
If you have anyone local that reconditions cylinder heads, they will be able to do the job.

Nope, you can not helicoil one. You need a insert to do the job.
