Hi All,

Still looking for the Tacho take off point that bolts and screws to the rocker cover.

Anyone got one, new or used.

If it's anything like the CB550, you can flip the engine and split the crankcase for a good look at the gearbox. Bill W.

I got an 18mm x 1.5 for the CB400 and a 16 x 1.5 VW transporter wheel bolt ( Via Trigger) for the CB550. Bill W.

Thanks Julie, I will give those a look as the screw doesn't want to move it.

Cheers Bill.

Hi Julie,

Thanks for the quick reply.

It looked like that was the way, but not having done one of these before I wanted to be sure.

Thanks

CB500/550 / Rocker shafts
« on: May 30, 2019, 10:30:56 AM »
Hi,
I need to get the rockers out as I want the cover blasting.
At the outer ends I see a large screwdriver slot and the shaft is threaded 6mm.
What is the method used to remove the rocker shafts.
Looks like, to me, that they can be pulled out using the threaded portion of the shaft???
All info greatly appreciated.
Cheers  Bill W.

Hi Oddjob,

Yes, it is the lug that is broken where the JIS Screw goes through. Looks like it has been over tightened.

If you can find where you put the one you have seen, I would gladly have it off you, no real rush, this is a long term project.

If anyone else finds one, let me know.

Thanks

Bill W.

Hi Trigger,

As you rightly say it is the Tacho take off from the Rocker cover. Speedo from front hub.

They are quite pricey (picks self up from floor)

Cheers

Bill.

Hi All,

Just taken the screw and bolt out of the speedo take off point on the rocker cover. You've guessed, its broken and has been for some time. Does anyone have the part Number and a possible source to get one from?  TIA Bill W.

Hi,
I went with my brother Ross to see Graham and Julie today as my brother needed some work doing on the head and barrels of his CB400.

It is amazing how much information you can pick up by watching, listening ant talking to two people who have been into motorbikes as long as they have

Graham is, in my opinion, the most fastidious of engineers I have known. The customer always come first, but not at the cost of a perfect build.

My brother knows that when he gets his barrels and head back they will be spot on. The price and timescale are as you would expect for that kind of quality engineering


Both Graham and Julie are source of knowledge of the early Honda's. Whilst Graham's skills lie in the engineering side of things, Julie runs him a close second and makes a far superior cuppa. In fairness I haven't tasted one of Graham's cuppa's, he was too busy talking Honda.

Looking forward to meeting you both again, along with the dogs, when we pick up the CB400 parts.
Thanks again for the hospitality today.  Bill W.

Ross,

An expensive option but take a look at the web site

Hi Steve,
Just had an e-mail from my brother. He checked the list and he is not on it.
He entered the same details as before and got back a confirmation e-mail.
Cheers
