Crankshaft shells?
Jimbo550:
Well I've searched all over the crankcase and the crank and can't seem to find any letters or numbers anywhere. I've ordered a pair of green shells and I'll try one pair with some plastigauge and see what I get. Thanks for the kind advice.

I don't have the genuine cb500 manual only a haynes manual. Don't suppose you would have a picture or photo copy of page 49 by any chance!!

Sure enough, on page 49....
Jimbo550:
Finally found the stamped letters on the crankcase and the numbers on the crank. It would appear they are all marked as A1 which i think relates to shell D YELLOW. Does this sound correct? On the plus side it seems to be the cheaper shell but on the down side its not in stock with cmsnl.

I've had a quick look online today and couldn't find any but I'll have a more indepth search one evening this week. Havn't had much time this last week so only just got round to using plastigauge on journals today. Had about .06 clearence and max is .08 so it's getting close.
