Hi,

I have a 1972/3 CB 500 and with a cracked carb stay plate which needs replacing. If anyone has one please let me know alternatively where would the best place be to get one of these in the UK.

mickwinf:
do you mean the alloy plate that the carbs are mounted on? if so I have one.

cantarauk:
Yup the very one. I have seen some variants of these so have added images for some clarity. As you can see its cracked straight through and there are two other broken pieces. SO best to replace if I can.

Bryanj:
That cracked piece is a separate item to the main plate and can be replaced if done carefully

cantarauk:
Just sent another picture of the plate. and there are more cracks on the other side. So was just going to try replace the entire plate with components. All part of the 70's bike revival fun I guess.
