Honda-SOHC

That is brilliant, I have sent you a PM.

No problem Mick, they would have crumbled once my fat lump jumped on the bike anyway. 

On another note I played with the carbs today and am quite happy with them. Number 4 was a bit low so I adjusted it which made number 1 go a bit high, so I adjusted that which made number 3 a bit low and so on.
Got there in the end though.



One other thing, when I finished I noticed oil coming out from around one of the three bolt heads that hold the inner alternator coil in. Have I missed something out or should I have sealed them with something?

Looks gorgeous love k1's and no tax to pay 
I may have some seat rubber if I can find them you can have them for beer tokens.

That would be great Mick, you must let me know what you drink. 

I am so close to finishing the K1 I can almost taste it. I just hope that light at the end of the tunnel isn't a train coming. 

It runs although it pissed fuel everywhere because the fuel lines are so far gone (valuable lesson learnt), all the electrics now work and I managed to get hold of a re-chromed front mudguard for buttons (well, comparatively).

All it needs now is a rear mudguard, headlamp and rim (the one that's on is a concave Cibby thing with a dented rim), matching indicator lenses instead of the multi-coloured ones that are on, the rear brake assembly as it is away having three feet of powder-coating removed and a few other bits and bobs.
Most annoying thing is I need a set of seat blocks and a seat spring that pops it up. Any ideas? DS is the obvious but the blocks are special order and the spring is discontinued.

Oh, and I need to do something with the seat and sort a strap out and see if I can put some chrome strips on it.

I made the tubes out of some copper pipe with the ends folded over so I could rivet them in, and at the top used small pieces of rubber tube similar to what was in the speedo.

After finding out that the oil pressure switch was knackered and spending ages trying to figure out where I had gone wrong in modifying the later rev counter  I have finally got it fitted and working.
It was a bit of a headache but worth it in the end.

Hoorah!!!

So one of these should be OK then. 

Oil pressure switch on eBay

Hi Phil, I got a load of nuts and bolts from these people, they seemed fine to me and there is quite a variety.
