CB350/400 / Hole in bottom crankcase

« on: June 19, 2016, 07:58:19 PM »

Hi all
I have just bought a 400/4 from a deceased estate which is in pretty good shape having undergone partial restoration by the previous owner before he passed away. The big issue with it is that he seems to have used an over length bolt on the lower left engine mount which has pierced the lower crankcase. I have tried repairing it using the metal epoxy but it's still leaking badly.
So my question is can I change the lower crankcase without a total stripdown or is it possible to invert the engine and remove the lower crankcase without removing the barrels head and cam etc.
If not then I guess I either go for a complete rebuilt (not really keen on that option) or look for a replacement motor.

CB750 / CB750 K2 lower rear shock bush

« on: November 21, 2015, 11:03:46 PM »

HI All

I have a 74 UK supplied K2 that I bought needing a few jobs to finish. One of the missing parts were the lower rear shock bushes so I bought part numbers 40548268000 form DS but they don't fit. The supplied bushes measure 22mm OD and the bush housing measures 22mm ID. I have checked the bushes on numerous models on CMS website and they all seem to be the same. Cant quite work out why the bushes and the hole on the swing arm are different sizes. Can anyone else shed some light.

CB750 / CB750 K5

« on: August 27, 2015, 09:55:19 AM »

Hi All
I've just acquired a nice K5 which seems pretty original. The issue I have is with the seat catch / lock. The bit on the seat is there OK but the bracket and the lock itself are missing. Now it seems repro locks are available from DS but no one is listing the bracket part number 50223341000 I believe and item number 1 on the attached picture. Don't suppose anyone knows where I can source one from.

CB750 / Seat refurbishment

« on: February 04, 2015, 03:12:16 PM »

I've got a K2 that has had the seat recovered in the past with a non standard cover and it looks very wrong! The base is very solid with just a minor amount of surface rust so the seat looks ripe for refurbishment. The problem is there seems to be plenty of covers available out there but has anyone here actually fitted one they are happy with. Do they all have the Honda name on the rear.

CB350/400 / CB350F Speedo

« on: November 06, 2014, 01:23:13 PM »

Hi All

Recently acquired a nice CB350F which originally came in from Italy in the mid 1990's. My speedo is obviously a kph version so I'm looking at options to swap it out for a MPH version. I had considered getting one of the reproduction clock faces in MPH which seem like a decent solution as long as I can get the speedo apart. However that would still leave me with the mileage and trip ticking over in Km's. I'm guessing there is different gearing inside the speedo for kph and mph?
Alternatively if someone out there has a decent MPH speedo for this model I'd be interested.
