CB500/550 / Re: Rear wheel rotation stiffens up when tightening axle problem.

I had no issues Mike when I did my 400 rear wheel so I was well miffed when the 500 did not work out first fit.

After chatting to Ken on reflection I obviously did not fit the right side bearing fully home. The 500 has that short extra spacer that fits into the left bearing as well as the long center spacer. Make sure you fit the short spacer fully home into the fixed left side bearing before you fit it.

I've had a good few 400/4 carbs apart and I've never seen anything like that before! Maybe the PO had the tank off at some time to do something else and dropped that part down there and you know the agro of dropping something down there and a) seeing where it actually went and b) trying to fish it out! BUT....the shape of the indent at one end does look like the lifter but if it is someone has cut the end off and why?
