Cb750k6 clutch disc query

<< < (2/7) > >>

Nurse Julie:
Paul. I can't explain anything technical as I go by pictures
Here is the pic and instruction from the Workshop Manual. What I can say is that Trig is rebuilding a CB750 K6 at present, which has an original K6 clutch in it and when he put the plates in, they were as in this picture. Hope this helps a little.

Trigger:
There were a few different clutches used on the K6, some had the K4/K5 set up and some had the F1 set up.
If you do not have the double plate then, the first plate is a friction pate and build up. All the steel plates have a bevelled edge and make sure the bevel faces out. If one of the steel plates are in the wrong way then, you will get clutch judder  ;)

Paulreade:
How interesting. Really appreciate that. I shall try and find out why the grooves are situated as they are and hopefully add a post.
Thanks for your input on this.
Regards
Paul

Hi trig, nurse Julie.
I think prior to Xmas you asked me to clarify near side or offside. I confirmed offside looking into the basket, which is what the extract you showed on the photo seems to indicate. If that is the case then the friction discs go in as pic A - agreed ?.
I asked the same question on the USA site but no one has replied at all which was surprising, nor has David silvers come back which again is a little disappointing.
Which manual do you use as the ' haynes' manual is far from adequate and quite a disappointment.

If you can just confirm the above I'll get on rebuild. Appreciate your assistance on this.
Regards
Paul

Trigger:
I can't understand why you asked a question and i gave you the answer and, then you still question my answer  :o
In the past month i have built 2, K6 engines and 2, 500 fours which all have the directional plates and lost count of how many over the years. The picture is from the Honda CB500 Four workshop manual, which all plates are directional.

The K6 never really had its own manual but, originally only the last outside plate was directional  ;)
