Measuring O-Rings
Oddjob:
I've often wondered why whoever scans parts book never do a complete scan. For instance, my 1973 CB500K parts book has all the part numbers used on the bike in numerical order at the back of the book, very handy when you see a part listed as fitting the bike but it doesn't look familiar, it then tells you which page that part is shown on. Unfortunately my BIL borrowed the parts book for some time when building his 500 up and it came back in pretty poor condition, some of the pages were no longer attached inside the book, the front cover was missing etc. Since then the book has slowly deteriorated and the part number lists are now missing some pages.
Must see if I can find another, mine is full of little notes and even some prices from when I was restoring them both. I'll keep it just for sentimental reasons.
The full gasket sets can have weird end numbers, don't try searching for just 000 or 010 for instance, substitute 3 question marks instead and any results will then show. I can tell a shell colour by it's part number and even if it's crank or conrod. I know a lot fo model numbers but nowhere near all, just the ones that interest me as a rule.

All of the manuals like CB250K0 and CB72 etc I have always scanned in their entirety including covers but the 500 one I think originated from Bryan. I have this one though I bought at Rufforth Autojumble last year. I can auto-scan it at work when I am next there. [ Guests cannot view attachments ]
