CB350f Prinary Chain Guide

(1/2) > >>

H2Eric:
Does anyone know which way round the two primary chain guides fit in the crankcases on a 1972 CB350f. The photo attached is the lower crankcase with the front of the engine at the bottom of the picture. There is a small hole at one end of the guide, which I assume is to signify which way round it fits, but I can find no reference to it anywhere. With a 50% chance of getting it right the question is have I and which way round does the guide fit in the upper case?

Thanks
Eric

I have just looked at a video of a strip down and the hole faces rearwards.

Hi Eric,
As Kevski says, the dimple faces rearwards  towards the gearbox on both guides. I put a piece on my site regarding rebuilding my spare 350/4 engine. It's part 4 in the 350/4 section.

H2Eric:
Thanks guys. Off into the garage now to change it around, not for long though as it's f-f-freezing c-c-cold in there.

Cheers
Eric

Orcade-Ian:
It's been 10 deg C all day here in the frozen north of Orkney, might have to remove one or two vests!
Don't forget those different length lower engine bolts when you put it back in the frame,
Ian
