I

  Before I post the link  I did offer £500 and  could have had it for £700  but I would have only squirreled iit away. Hopefully it will go on a bike that
  needs it and not just be  put aside.

Makes sense. Still would love to see the VIN stamp on the frame and someone must of spent a lot of time getting the black paint off that engine . I understand that the GE stands for General Export  ;)

 You would think so but according to CSMNL  General Export are CB750E
 As for the frame UK bikes didn't get the VIN plate did they and were stamped where that plate is. My USA is stamped on the other side. The V5 shows date of first reg UK as 76.  All a bit strange

The Future

A man calls Pizza hut to order a pizza...
CALLER: Is this Pizza Hut?
GOOGLE: No sir, it's Google Pizza.
CALLER: I must have dialled a wrong number, sorry.
GOOGLE: No sir, Google bought Pizza Hut last month.
CALLER: OK. I would like to order a pizza.
GOOGLE: Do you want your usual, sir?
CALLER: My usual? You know me?
GOOGLE: According to our caller ID data sheet, the last 12 times you called you ordered an extra-large pizza with three cheeses, sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms and meatballs on a thick crust.
CALLER: Super! That’s what I’ll have.
GOOGLE: May I suggest that this time you order a pizza with ricotta, arugula, sun-dried tomatoes and olives on a whole wheat gluten-free thin crust?
CALLER: What? I don’t want a vegetarian pizza!
GOOGLE: Your cholesterol is not good, sir.
CALLER: How do you know that?
GOOGLE: Well, we cross-referenced your home phone number with your medical records. We have the result of your blood tests for the last 7 years.
CALLER: Okay, but I do not want your rotten vegetarian pizza! I already take medication for my cholesterol.
GOOGLE: Excuse me sir, but you have not taken your medication regularly. According to our database, you purchased only a box of 30 cholesterol tablets once at Lloyds Pharmacy, 4 months ago.
CALLER: I bought more from another Pharmacy.
GOOGLE: That doesn’t show on your credit card statement.
CALLER: I paid in cash.
GOOGLE: But you did not withdraw enough cash according to your bank statement.
CALLER: I have other sources of cash.
GOOGLE: That doesn’t show on your latest tax returns unless you bought them using an undeclared income source, which is against the law!
CALLER: WHAT THE !!!
GOOGLE: I'm sorry sir, we use such information only with the sole intention of helping you.
CALLER: Enough already! I'm sick to death of Google, Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp and all the others. I'm going to an island without the internet, TV, where there is no phone service and no one to watch me or spy on me.
GOOGLE: I understand sir, but you need to renew your passport first. It expired 6 weeks ago...

   If you have them off it's worth splitting them just to change the seals to Viton.

More modern bike with higher revving engines have more clearance. I have a bearing data book somewhere for motorcycles up to the year 2005 but, have not looked at it in years as they keep changing with higher revving engines on the gear box. All SOHC engines are happy with C3 Chris ;)
 
   Cheers.

    The bearing grade makes a fair difference to the price of a bearing.  eg SKF 6205 c3 is £3 and a SKF 6205 C5 is £12. Anyone know what grades
    Honda use in the engines.

    Snap ring ones are getting a little costly now.

C3 Chris. I can't remember ordering anything other than C3 for any of the engines.

 I just wondered if they were using owt different C3 is pretty much what you would call a standard bearing.

   Didn't Roy only find the cause by having his cylinder head eddy current crack detected. It was on his 350f.

   If everything is tight and there is no flex joint in the exhaust and nothing has fractured yet, then you have been very lucky or used it very little. Re
   think the silencer mounting.

You can only see the tape when you watch the video. Seems like they've taped the throttle closed for some reason.

   Now I see it.  ;)
