Damn already ordered, I definitely need to get used to this forum and all the services on offer, is there a page somewhere that I can see who offers what?

I havent yet ordered any gaskets/seals. Whats the best option for this? I am not a huge fan of aftermarket so should I order separates using Honda or OEM where possible? DS do a set for £65 - https://www.davidsilverspares.co.uk/CB550K3/part_356529/ is this any good?

Also is it worth replacing the needle and roller bearings? how difficult is it to get the primary shaft bearing out of the case?

Lots of questions sorry!

Sump came today, very good condition and very clean. Only problem is the plug has been put in with some form of sealer and wont come out -

No criticism of the seller intended, the price was very fair and it was cleaned up well.

Tried heat and reasonable force but I am to scared to give it some beans for fear of ending up back at square one. Is the problem I had with the original a common one, I found one more post with the same problem. Out of interest I tried putting the plug back in to the correct torque and got nowhere near it before it failed.

I am thinking of leaving well alone for now and just accepting that I will have to drop the sump to change the oil and keep an eye out for another replacement.

That is annoying! But very common for people to seize it up (or seal it up) to stop it leaking rather than invest in a new sealing washer. I think a good heat and give it wellie. It’s not going to come out otherwise.

Bryanj:
Its because people, instead of spending 50p, re use the alloy sealing washer so many times it deforms badly and the bolt is tightened even more again and again and again
