Nice looking bike. I think RUF used to be a Brighton registration, if so the original bike probably came from the now defunct Redhill Motors in North Road.

Spitfire by Beachy Head is a regular occurrence here in nice weather.. They fly from Biggin Hill  (and Headcorn I think) usually the two seater, which you can book a flight on if you've plenty of cash. Two flew over last week, Merlin engine porn !

Don't know how, but my RH side panel has broken  :'( , is repairing these a thing, if so who does this?

 If a repair is not possible, I can see I can get a pattern part from DS , who would members  recommend for painting and is there a colour code for the yellow. Many thanks. [ Guests cannot view attachments ]

Trying to replace the bearings in my bicycle's bottom bracket, please could someone advise me if there's any difference between bearing numbers 6805RS  and 68052RS
Thanks

CB350/400 / Re: CB400F Ignition Switch
« on: April 30, 2018, 12:01:13 PM »
I have managed to score a couple of the older type ignition switches from Fleabay.

 I have separated the lock bodies from the plastic parts, cleaned up the better looking of the two plastic parts using a soft brush and WD40 on the the exposed conductors and plastic outer body. I have not dismantled the internals for fear of flying springs, ball bearings etc.

Following this I then attached the cleaned up plastic part to my original lock barrel, all seems to work fine with positive key switch type clicks.

I have then tried to ascertain what circuits are working using the shop manual and my multi meter. Please could someone advise me if the following is correct, with the switch off the bike.

Switch Off no continuity on any combination of pins.
Switch on  pins 5 & 6 (Red  and Black) about 2 ohms. No continuity on any other combination.
Switch on park  pins 5 & 4 (Red and Brown) about 2 ohms. No continuity on any other combination.
What should I be getting for the other brown wire combinations? Or does the switch have to be connected up to read those? The spare plastic part gives the same readings. [ Guests cannot view attachments ]

Also is there a knack to accessing the two lock securing bolts, perhaps by taking of the headlight?

Many Thanks
Dave

No original keys were with bike, so I ordered one off the barrel number.

Ever since recommissioning the bike  the switch was intermittent, on inspection the innards had sort of melted,  so I went for the DS unit.

I then I ordered the repair kit. It wasn't a great deal of money,  however I would like to go back to the original item, as genuine Honda keys are still available, as well as the convenience of having just one key for all locks.
