Unless it is meant to fit with the bent splines facing away. Like this:

It was more than two years ago now but I do remeber trying to fit mine and it just did not want to fit flat so as to speak.
IIRC I took it off and put it back on again and it suddenly decided to fit after at least 6 or 8 attempts that seemed identical.

I might still have my old disassembly photos in my archive - I will take a look and post it if I find it.

CB350/400 / Transmission countershaft 25mm lock washer fitment
« Last post by Dolomite_ on Today at 02:57:05 PM »
Im rebuilding the transmission and cant quite figure out who the 25mm lock washer goes on. Its part 90462-323-000 and seen here on yamiya https://www.yamiya750.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=179_273_206_210&products_id=2860.

Is it meant to sit flush with the thrust washer? The outward splines wont fit underneath the splines on the thrust washer. I just want to double check that it seems correct before I put it all together.






I didn't do the rule of you never have enough pictures...

managed to get both damaged studs out, and was not an easy task. welding was the only way for these two. one was right down to the end and welded a nut after leaving in soak of WD40 for a week, the other being longer also had the soak, but welded a longer strip of metal all the way down to the base giving more chance  it would hold, and this one came out easier :-)

CB350/400 / Re: Fork Oil Weight?
« Last post by Bryanj on Today at 11:09:50 AM »
The main reason for using ATF is that it supposedly does not froth when pumped which hapens a lot in forks.
When Mr Honda designed these bikes ATF was about the only oil with this property, specialist fork oils did not exist.
My opinion is use any ATF as the specs wont matter to what it is being used for OR use specialist fork oil but as to what grade now that depends on the owners weight, how it will be ridden and level of comfort required, i seem to remember 7 worked out about same as ATF

Ted,

I'm getting well out my depth here, maybe we have an oil expert on this forum that can answer your questions?

Anyhow the lubrication requirements of our old Honda forks are probably far less than that of modern automatic transmission systems.
So maybe the latest spec ATF should be more than adequate for us.
