1967 CB450K0 Black Bomber Rebuild - By Royhall

Pretty sure CMS have it labelled wrongly.
AshimotoK0:
My main question on all of this is ...will the later 5-speed complete rotor/starter clutch fit a Bomber? ... These are at least available at reasonable cost used, from time to time, (as I just found when I got a really nice one with the chhain and motor sprocket too for £120 from DK). Seems that Honda went though may design changes on the DOHC twin bikes starter system but the fact that you find the later assemblies in nice condition but every Bomber assembly seems to be, at least, semi-fooked, indicates that if you can fit the later assembly it's the best option in terms of reliability.
According to Nigel Harris (a member here) .... In a post HondaTwins in 2009, he stated there that he has a K5 system fitted to his Bomber. I will try to contact him via email to confirm.

To be honest I think any 450 unit will fit but you need to have the whole kit like you got from DK. Trying to replace one part is full of danger. I think even DK have realised that so they now sell them as a complete unit.

My original 1967 Bomber rotor is at work Roy. But this is a close up of it ... It had thin tabs (look how bad it is though) :)

That looks stepped back from the outer diameter. If so that would be correct. I think they changed it to the thicker lugs to stop them snapping.
