Swinging Arm Bush appears to be a non standard size, why?
Nurse Julie:
One other thing, I've just measure the ID of a set of the OEM plastic bushes and they also measure 21.40 ID.
Tomb:
The OEM type being plastic, and presumably a tight fit in the swing arm, would they not have a much bigger outside diameter, and crush somewhat when fitted? this may bring the ID down in size when fitted. Julies bronze bushes will not do this much therefore need to be "size" before being fitted.
Just a thought.
Trigger:
Nope, still 21.40 when oem plastic bushes are fitted ;)

Thank you for your reply Nurse Julie, the parts that I got from CMS are of the plastic type. Can you shed any light as to why my bushes differ from the parts that CMS say are the correct replacements for my K7?

Absolutely no idea. What I do know is that the bronze bushes I sell fit the complete CB SOHC/4 range of bikes, including all the 750's K0-K8 and F1/ F2.
Looking at what I can see in your photo, is yours a standard swing arm?

As far as i'm aware my swinging arm is of the standard variety, what do think, is it? (image attached)
Nurse Julie:
Yes, it looks to be, it was all the chrome that threw me of track.
So really, even though CMS insist the bushes they have sent you are correct, they are obviously not. I'm wondering if they are using a superseded part and although the OD may be correct, the ID is incorrect.
