1976 CB 750 Clutch upgrade

(1/2) > >>

Hi we have a customer with a 1976 CB750 the clutch pressure plate the one with 4 springs has a crack in it can we use a clutch from a new Honda CB750 that will fit straight in with more springs.

Many Thanks Sheps

Dont think so, those pressure plates crack when not fitted correctly and there is a form making better ones but cant remember the name

Unless you've got something there, available and definitely fits, then I dont know of something with that replacement potential.

The early CB 750 is fairly unique in tbat design, with not much in the way of compatability from later type designs.

As noted above, the cracked spring plate on these comes from incorrectly assembled components, ultimately tightened down on springs with some internal misalignment.  Durability when correctly assembled isn't usually a problem with them.

Hi,
 Thank you for the replies unfortunately this came to us broken where somebody just  but too many plates to stop it slipping.
