You should find the spring washer will fit over the plain shank of the bolt but the plain washer will not

On an old bike it was always stated at estimate time that any extra work due to broken/siezed bolts was at the expense of the owner

Finally got the correct rear sprocket, tried all the usual places but I had overlooked Honda Classics. Looking for a stainless f/brake caliper piston and a couple of other items I typed CB350f in the site search bar and there amongst the parts was the sprocket. Ordered online Tuesday evening, delivered Thursday morning and the pegs fit correctly.

I’ve been checking the placement of the various washers on the brake stay arm. The rubber washer had previously been fitted (apparently incorrectly) on the outside of the stay instead of next to the brake plate. Confusingly the owners manual shows it on the outside.

Also I initially thought the parts diagram of the stay at the swing arm was wrong - shouldered bolt, torque arm, 10mm spring washer, 8mm plain washer then nut. However I suppose this allows some movement of the arm whilst retaining some tension.

Graphogen on all new surfaces that are going to touch each other, a drop of oil on everything else, except underneath the shells, you fit these dry.

CB350/400 / Engine assembly questions/tips
« Last post by Dolomite_ on Today at 07:49:48 PM »
It's almost time to start putting my engine back together, just waiting for the last bits to be aqua blasted and bolts zinc plated.

Just thought I'd ask the question again, what assembly lubes would people recommend? I've seen quite a few mentioned.

Should I put anything in the cylinders? I've seen people mention a few drops of oil, graphite lube, and nothing.
